well - I am talking about this (probe timeout, not target timeout)

probes/basefork.pm:168
        # we add 1 so that the probes doing their own timeout handling
        # have time to do it even in the worst case
        my $timeout = $maxpings * $maxtimeout + 1;

20 pings * 5s  + 1 = 101 so default $timeout==5 for probe is not enough

So that's why I have suggested $timeout for probe == 10.

there are a lot timeouts here :)

the probes/basefork.pm is a generic file for all probes so I assume
that only the one that I have posted before. Not sure if I can specify
the default probe timeout in each probe source file?
