            Extended timeout is an added timeout that is given once
193
 
            after a password has been sent sucessfully to a client.
194
 
            The timeout is by default longer than the normal timeout,
195
 
            and is used for handling the extra long downtime while a
196
 
            machine is booting up.  Time to take into consideration
197
 
            when changing this value is file system checks and quota
198
 
            checks.  The default value is 15 minutes.
