Piotr,

After putting in the directives you mentioned, if I leave become_method: 
su and become_flags: '-' in the playbook, then the playbook is stuck/runs 
without completion.  If I take those out, leaving only become: yes, then I 
get the following output:

ok: [admin1] => {
    "who": {
        "changed": true, 
        "cmd": "whoami", 
        "delta": "0:00:00.006895", 
        "end": "2018-12-04 13:32:06.805245", 
        "rc": 0, 
        "start": "2018-12-04 13:32:06.798350", 
        "stderr": "", 
        "stderr_lines": [], 
        "stdout": "root", 
        "stdout_lines": [
            "root"
        ]
    }
}

If I run the script on the remote host *without* su - root, I get:

Can't exec "rndc": No such file or directory at ./dnscopy.pl line 296.
rndc -s dns1 reload failed: No such file or directory at ./dnscopy.pl line 
296.

If I run the script on the remote host with su - root, I get:

server reload successful
