*become_user and become_method are commented out in favor of shell: "su -
root" because using the former causes a timeout error, But that's another
issue.
Output of play:
TASK [command]
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [admin1]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": "/scripts/dnscopy.pl
-f", "delta": "0:00:01.425695", "end": "2018-12-03 17:13:56.113927",
"failed": true, "rc": 2, "start": "2018-12-03 17:13:54.688232", "stderr":
"Can't exec \"rndc\": No such file or directory at /scripts/dnscopy.pl line
296.\nrndc -s dns1 reload failed: No such file or directory at
/scripts/dnscopy.pl line 296.", "stderr_lines": ["Can't exec \"rndc\": No
such file or directory at /scripts/dnscopy.pl line 296.", "rndc -s dns1
reload failed: No such file or directory at /scripts/dnscopy.pl line
296."], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}
without the -f switch, the play completes successfully.
