Hello. I found this "issue"

My nas is the UPS master and it auto powers off during night until 9 am to preserver HDD lifespam. My Desktop PC using win nut client will time out and not reconnect automatically when the UPS is back at 9 am. Would it be posible to add a connection schedule or a manual time out override ?

Please see #136

Manual reconnect in a software of this nature? I think this kind of software never should ask the user to reconnect... just keep trying to reconnect based on a timer should be enough. I've been asked to manually reconnect after reach max tries, maybe the computer or the nas has been disconnected for a while... but once is network again why the software stops reconnecting? It will be disconnected forever if I don't take a look at the icon on the notification area (hidden in my case). This feature turns the software useless as it will never reconnect itself.
