Hi Brian I appreciate your reply. Thank you. To clarify, the "usual" set-up for an Ansible environment of servers would be to use a non-root user account on the remote servers that has the ability to accept SSH connections from the Ansible server and the ability to run commands as the root user via sudo.
If that is the case then I will go back to my client and ask for the SSH user to be provided with sudo root access, the same as their other servers. Thanks for your reply. This is new to me and I do not want to do anything "silly" but also, do not want to make things more difficult than they should be.
