The default is no explicit timeout, which means the kernel context will live

+.B -T timeout
+Timeout, in seconds, to create an RPC connection with a server while
+establishing an authenticated gss context for a user.
+The default timeout is set to 5 seconds.
+If you get messages like "WARNING: can't create tcp rpc_clnt to server
+%servername% for user with uid %uid%: RPC: Remote system error -
+Connection timed out", you should consider an increase of this timeout.
