Do you mean the delay between when you need to re-enter the superuser password?
I found this via an LLM:
To change the delay before needing to re-enter your sudo
password, follow these steps:
-
Open the terminal and run:
sudo visudo
-
Locate the line:
Defaults env_reset
-
Add the following line below it:
Defaults timestamp_timeout=<time-in-minutes>
Replace
<time-in-minutes>
with the desired timeout in minutes (e.g.,30
for 30 minutes). Setting it to0
requires a password every time, while a negative value disables the timeout entirely.
Intolerance.
