Perhaps an [Elasticsearch tribe node](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-tribe.html) would fit this use case?

What do you expect an FTP or SSH plugin to do, and how would that help you? With more details about what you're trying to do it would become easier to give relevant help.

Again, you're not giving enough details for it to be possible to help you. What piece of software gives the timeout message? What's the exact log message? If you manually make the same request to the system, do you get the same result? What's in the logs of the system that should've responded to the requests. Etc etc.
