I think, on having read the messages more carefully, that this would be
best implemented as a method that you pass different arguments. That way
you can apply the same code piece that you origianlly sent to multiple
tasks.

 methods:

     ExpandFile(sshd_config)
     ExpandFile(ssh_config)

     # etc etc
