I believe that is dictated by the underlying OS. I don't believe any
fancy timeout is implemented inside the stager (where
ReverseConnectRetries is implemented). It should try until the OS
returns a failure.

In cases where the remote host sends a connection refused, that could
be immediate failure. In other cases, it could take as long as a
minute or two.

Hope this helps.
