Good morning. I am trying to run a test case where I can edit a users
groups using a playbook in Ansible on CENTOS 6.7
Ansible version 1.9.2 currently installed.
After thorough research of other postes and the user module itself I dont
see any ways to take a group out of a users profile only remove the user in
entirety or add groups
We had a user lose a access level, so we have to deprecate his permission
set to the wheel group until such time as he gains the required need to be
back in the associated group. Below is the basic playbook I used to make
the test case. I want to try it against my test case to remove the group
before taking it to a live account status on our test range.
---
- hosts: test
sudo: yes
tasks:
- name: Create a test user for trials
user: name=testuser1
group=some-group
groups=wheel,cdrom,additional groups
password=somehasedpassword
shell=/bin/bash
state=present
append=yes
Now I know i can set the state to absent and that removes the user
entirely. But I dont want to do that, we dont need to remove his system
access, just the elevated privilege grouping. I have run a test case where
I removed wheel in the playbook under groups but it still shows in a groups
query on the test user.
Any help is appreciated. I am sure it is something simple I over looked.
