I am writing some paramiko-based ssh routines. One of them logs into a remote server and then does a sudo command. The problem is that if the user provides the incorrect sudo password, the call hangs the other end is waiting for the correct password to be entered.
Is there some standard Pythonic way to bound how long a function call can run, after which time it is forcefully terminated?
