Hi all,

The default timeout is 45 seconds, that's too low for a few ovpn tests.

Indeed, these tests can take up to 50 seconds with some debug kernel
config on NIPA. Set a timeout to 90 seconds, just to be on the safe
side.

Note that the Fixes tag here points to the introduction of the ovpn
tests because I don't know when they started to take more than 45
seconds. That's OK because a timeout of 1.5 minutes is not exaggerated.

we didn't really bother tweaking this value because AFAIK NIPA uses a 
much higher timeout value.

This said, I agree that when running locally 45 seconds may not be 
always enough.
