Hi,

I'm getting "Timeout (12s) waiting for privilege escalation prompt" errors. Can the escalation timeout value be changed somewhere?

Thanks,

Each time I have seen this error, waiting for minutes would not have
solved the issue, as there should not be a prompt at all. At least
with ssh keys and sudo with NOPASSWD. Or become_pass stored in
ansible-vault files.
