Shutdown Delayed Looking for Network

I don't see this reported elsewhere but apologies if it has. Noticed that if ones network connection is lost for whatever reason then it can't be closed by the shutdown script which hangs until it times out after two minutes. Could this be changed to wait only a few seconds? Not really a bug just a bit irksome at times.

I used to have a similar wait (90 seconds) with external NTFS devices attached; this went away after one of the point upgrades to Jessie.  Is your system current (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade)?

Edit the file at /etc/systemd/system.conf (as root!) and un-comment and edit these lines:

DefaultTimeoutStartSec=
DefaultTimeoutStopSec=

See systemd-system.conf(5)
