Hi Guys,

I have a playbook to copy DNS zone files from local directory to a remote 
one and restart the named service. The playbook is as follows:
---
# This playbook upgrades zone data files from the control machine to all 
DNS servers 1 machine at a time

- name: Upgrade zone data files. Reload named-chroot if required
  hosts: dnsservers
  gather_facts: no
  sudo: yes
  serial: 1
  tasks:

    - name: copy dns zone files from control machine to DNS servers
      copy: src=zones/ dest=/var/named owner=root group=named mode=0440
      register: namedzones

    - name: restart dns service if required
      service: name=named-chroot state=restarted
      when: namedzones.changed

I test run the playbook as follows:

ansible-playbook -vv dns-copy-zones.yml --ask-become-pass --check

The output is:
SUDO password: 

PLAY [Upgrade zone data files. Reload named-chroot if required] *** 

TASK: [copy dns zone files from control machine to DNS servers] ***
fatal: [192.168.16.195] => ssh connection error while waiting for sudo 
password prompt

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting                           
                                                                            
                                        

PLAY RECAP 
******************************************************************** 
           to retry, use: --limit @/home/martin/dns-copy-zones.retry

192.168.16.195             : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=1    failed=0

When I increase the verbosity I can see 5-6 files are copied then copy 
hangs locally on transferring the next file and eventually times out.

On the remote machine if I tail /var/log/secure I can see all the files up 
to the last one going through.

The machine I run the playbook from and the destination machine are both 
CentOS 7. The version is ansible 1.9.2.

Below is the more verbose output I have highlighted what I think are the 
important messages. I am only including the last file to go through 
successfully and the next one to hang (let me know if you require the full 
output):
