There are several ways, the easiest is if your inventory script
provides OS info:
remote_user: "{{ansible_distibution == 'Fedora'|ternary('fedora', 'root')
If you have no info ahead of time you can test connecting and then use
group_by (example below) or the same expression above on the result
var. If using group_by you can preset group_vars/fedora =>
ansible_ssh_user: fedora
- hosts: all
remote_user: root
gather_facts: False
tasks:
- ping:
register: rootlogin
ignore_errors: yes
- group_by: key=fedora
when: rootlogin|failed
