Description

Forked from https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/4389

  • useLocalServer=true
  • Connect to a remote with an auth prompt
  • Leave the prompt open for a long time
  • It times out and connecting is canceled

I don't see any reason why I can't increase the timeout or retry this. Also the error thrown from the auth prompt listening server is not properly handled.
