Hi Sean,
If it's a standard plugin (from nagios-plugins), you can normally use
the "-t" option in your check command definition to set the timeout to
300 seconds (i.e. 5 minutes.)
E.g. "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H [IP address] -w 1000,20%
-c 2000,50% -t 300"

How would I go about extending the plugin time for this to 5 min.
There is a lot of traffic on our clients lines which makes the 10
second interval to short for them to respond.
Following is the mail output from Nagios
