Re: [ansible-project] Using a defined group_var over an undefined host_var (or how to hack variable precedence)

;those" answers, but the way you are describing it looks to be a bit overcomplicated to me. E.g. even if it can be done, sounds like it would be rather fiddly and unintuitive when you decide to make configuration changes. Best regards -- Branko Majic XMPP: bra...@majic.rs Please use only Free fo
