Esteemed Collegues, I have created a Playbook to replcae the Entry in a
file using a lineinfile module, while i tried running it run and replace in
entry on the one host while not on the another host, i don't understand
why? as it doesn't report any error even on the debug mode. Do i need to
have some another regex pattern.

hosts: all
remote_user: root
gather_facts: False

lineinfile:
dest: /tmp/test_master

regexp: '^passwd: files ldap' # line to be replaced
line: 'passwd_compat: ldap' # new line which is replace existing ,
the one above
backrefs: yes
backup: yes
register: nss
- name: replace line
