Hi, I encountered similar problems.  It seems this happens when you 
connect to the server too frequently. I don't know the innate procedure 
but there's a nasty way to avoid the time-out for a windows client:

In your task manager, kill the nxssh.exe process and then when you 
connect to your nxserver, the time-out error should disappear.

Hope this works for you.
