Connection retry interval too small #124

Closed pvanderp closed 7 months ago

pvanderp commented 7 months ago

When using a NAS as a NUT server, if the NAS is rebooted for new firmware installation, WinNUT will time-out retrying the connection within the installation-reboot interval. This leaves several clients unprotected.

Suggestion is to increase the wait time in between retries. You could also double the wait time for each attempt.

The complete shutdown-install-reboot procedure for a NAS can take up to 5 or 10 minutes.

Hi @pvanderp ,

I know this is something people have been requesting. I think #65 addresses this. If you agree, go ahead and subscribe to that issue and provide feedback, and let's close this one.
