Hi Henry, I am most definitely stupider than normal; I blame a recent pigeon infestation and the resulting lack of sleep.
I did not find that script on my system, so I downloaded it from here https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/release1.6.2/plugins/inventory/ssh_config.py. It appears to be throwing a python error: [prod_deploy@srvtoolbox ansible]$ ./ssh_config.py --list Traceback (most recent call last): File "./ssh_config.py", line 111, in <module> main(sys.argv[1:]) File "./ssh_config.py", line 105, in main print_list() File "./ssh_config.py", line 72, in print_list cfg = get_config() File "./ssh_config.py", line 67, in get_config ret_dict[host] = _copy['config'] KeyError: 'config' I think you wrote it? Perhaps it would be better if I went away and hunted some pigeons, and got some sleep, and then come back. I feel like I'm getting closer to a solution, even if I'm not getting any smarter. Have you got a suggestion for next steps? Thank you for your patience, On Wednesday, July 9, 2014 11:03:54 AM UTC-4, Henry Finucane wrote: > > Ansible only wants to talk to hosts in its inventory.
