Timeout

[Lance Spitzner <lance () stan ksni net>]

Is there any easy way to build some timeout functionality
in nmap?  When scanning large numbers of IPs, I sometimes
hit a "slow" scan, where it takes up to 30 minutes to
scan a specific IP.  I haven't cracked the code yet on
why this happens.  However, it would be great to have
a "-t" option where you can set in seconds  a time limit
per IP.  Any suggestion or recommendations on how to
approach this?

Thanks!
