Hi all,
Trying to ping a host prepared to accept the ping as a remote user root, I
get:
$ ansible -m ping master -vvv
ansible 2.7.4
config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
configured module search path =
['/home/ydamyanov/.ansible/plugins/modules',
'/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
ansible python module location =
/home/ydamyanov/.venv/ansible/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ansible
executable location = /home/ydamyanov/.venv/ansible/bin/ansible
python version = 3.7.1 (default, Oct 20 2018, 21:59:34) [GCC 5.4.0
20160609]
Using /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg as config file
/etc/ansible/hosts did not meet host_list requirements, check plugin
documentation if this is unexpected
/etc/ansible/hosts did not meet script requirements, check plugin
documentation if this is unexpected
Parsed /etc/ansible/hosts inventory source with ini plugin
META: ran handlers

master | UNREACHABLE! => {
"changed": false,
"msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh: Permission denied
(publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password).\r\n",
"unreachable": true
}
which I would expect if I have no remote_user option set in the config:
$ cat /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
[global]
inventory = /etc/ansible/hosts
remote_user = root
$ cat /etc/ansible/hosts
[k8s]
master ansible_ssh_host=10.11.12.13
If I specify the remote user explicitly on the command line, it works as
expected:
$ ansible -m ping master -u root
master | SUCCESS => {
"changed": false,
"ping": "pong"
}
Why does not ansible honor the remote_user option from the config? Am I
missing something?
Thanks for your help!
