No problem.

I've put a link to my mail into the INSTALL file, because I am still not sure if that \
is okay.

Lol.

This is already in nxloadconfig, but I agree that it would be nice to test it \
manually without doing an install.

And I had that case myself yesterday that I needed to test the connection where \
something had changed but I did not want to reinstall.

I have now added nxsetup --test to do what you wanted and I changed nxnode-login to \
have -o ConnectTimeout 3.

why or? I think I can add it additionally.
