Command to delay password entry - putty connection manager

Hi all,

putty connection manager is great but when attempting to sudo or ssh to another box via the post login commands it is subject to issues due to network latency (what happens is that pcm enters the password before the unix box is ready to receive it). Is there any clever way I can make unix sleep between the ssh command and then the password entry so that the issue is resolved?

thanks

skinny
