Hi,

I wish to add my little comment here: maybe is helpful to increase the timeout while waiting for network drives,
which may be "spinned off" to save power.

For example, my synology shuts down the disks when not in use, but if you try to access it, it will power on the disks, but takes at least 20/30 seconds to be 100% available,
Unfortunately dejadup considers this a timeout and no backup is performed.

Maybe can be configurable on a per-target basis?

On my mac, timemachine handles this very well, by just waiting longer.
