[c-nsp] ssh server behind pix timeout

timeout xlate hh:mm:ss
timeout conn hh:mm:ss

The xlate timeout should always be longer than the connection timeout. 
I usually go for 4:00:00 for the xlate and 3:00:00 for the conn.  I seem 
to remember some recent PIX's having a timeout value of 00:05:00 for one 
of those two.
