A command line option would be worth to be able to set manually the timeout if the 60 seconds default timeout, nor the “no timeout” option are acceptable. host provides for instance the -W option and dig proposes a +time=T query option.

The current timeout default is 5 seconds.
The timeout can now be set, both in the Dns.query resolver class and the ring tool.
A negative timeout means ring wait for a response forever (but there is no infinite retry, which would mean we could try to connect to servers again and again, which would not be good).
