I have a laptop running WinXP and VNC1.2.9 at a remote site that is either 
locked up, or has a program hogging all the CPU. When I try to VNC into the 
laptop from my home WinXP machine running VNC1.2.9, I get the "Failed to 
connect to server" popup after twenty seconds of waiting.

Is there any way to configure a longer timeout? I suspect that a connection 
may be able to be established if the viewer would just wait a while longer 
for the server to respond. I don't see any configurable value for the login 
timeout however.
