Hi Eric, I did read your email and it doesn't point out at all your privacy concerns and the substitution you pointed out now. The IP can matter in some cases, it depends on the contents on the inventory file (hosts) because the role uses by default some of that information to configure nginx, so in some rare cases (which have happened in the past) it may happen that nginx is configured in a way that it listens only on localhost. You could have pointed out the substitution and you could have put a fantasy ip, sharing the contents of your playbook and inventory file, which would have helped me out to figure out what's happening.
I'm sorry you assume that I treat people like imbeciles but I think you are really wrong on this, I can't assume anything, and that's why I base my reply on my understanding of the text in the email that people send, I can't read people's mind yet. That said, I don't think your comment was a constructive one, especially considering that I am replying here in my free time as a volunteer and it's not nice to read that I treat people as imbeciles on a sunday morning, so in order to maintain the high standard of civil discussions that always has distinguished this community, I won't allow similar non-constructive comments to be published on this discussion.
