Increased the NFS timeout.

Previously, the NFS timeout was set to 15 seconds in SSB, while the default value is 60 seconds. The lower timeout setting did not provide any benefits, but it could cause connection loss during NFS operations. Because of this, the NFS timeout is now set to the default 60 seconds.
