sudo timeouts --------------- The default timeouts for ``sudo`` commands are pretty aggressive. Here are two parameters to tweek the sudo behavior: * ``passwd_timeout``: Number of minutes before the sudo password prompt expires. * ``timestamp_timeout``: Number of minutes before the user needs to re-enter the sudo password. You need to apply these changes to the sudoers config file. Usually with ``sudo visudo`` command. :: Defaults env_reset,passwd_timeout=30,timestamp_timeout=30
