setup timeout for external request

Hello Carlos,

In your code sample you posted, you're using a HttpWebRequest for the call to the external service. For WebRequest, you can set the timeout like this:

var request_user = WebRequest.Create(XMLUrl) as HttpWebRequest;
request_user.Timeout = 500000; // set timeout here
request_user.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(XMLUserParameter, XMLPasswordParameter);
var response_user = request_user.GetResponse();

Note, the Timeout property is in milliseconds - I believe the default is 100000 ms, or 100 seconds)

So i don't need to configure anything in the iis or .config files?
