Is "plink.exe timeout" is a pause before establish any connection through tunnel or it is really timeout? If it is really timeout, why Heidy does not never connects faster than this period?
I try to connect to the fast server. Timeout is 2 seconds. I had successfuly connected to my DB after 2 seconds. After this I increased value of this option up to 10 seconds. And Heidy connects to the server after 10 seconds.
But why?

I experience the exact same thing - even 7 years later :) It really seems like this isn't really a timeout. I figured out I could decrease this and connect much faster - after having had to wait a long time for many years! Can even set it to 0 and still connect...
