Yes, this would be very useful. Should be easy to implement generically
for all commandline scanners (they all share the same code in the base
class), but a little more difficult for daemonized scanners, as they all
work slightly differently and could require different timeout values for
different stages.
For the interface, passing a config parameter of
scan_timeout => $some_number_of_seconds,
would be applicable to all types of scanners, with general daemonized
scanners having at least:
connect_timeout => $some_number_of_seconds
and possibly more scanner-specific options (like ping_timeout for
clamd).
Thoughts?
