service timeout

[Lars Stavholm]

I get "(Service Check Timed Out)" for one of my service checks
(check_rootkit [rkhunter]), which could take a few minutes at
times, so I've scheduled it to run every 20 minutes. Now, when
getting the timeout, I went looking in the doco for some time
out option and I couldn't find one. Well, I found the global
configuration option "service_check_timeout", but that doesn't
really cut it for me. The check_rootkit plugin could take several
minutes, and I wouldn't want to adjust the timeout for all
services just because of the check_rootkit.

Q: Is there any way one could define time out on one service
   rather than all services?

Any thoughts appreciated
/Lars
