Hi, Note: I try to post my answer a third time, but I am "suffering" from a very annoying anti-spam filter problem (the two deleted messages are mine, mitchellh is aware of that problem, sorry for the noise)
*I'm asking for the `vagrant` user to not be created and instead a user account with a configurable name to be employed and used instead for all other interactions with the vm (provisioning, login, etc).* Typical Vagrant baseboxes come with preinstalled `vagrant` user (with default insecure public key), but if needed you can build your own vagrant box (e.g. with Packer) with the predefined user(s) you want. *Is it possible to have Vagrant establish a vm and invoke provisioning (Ansible) with a username other than `vagrant`?* Alvaro said: if you specify a new user with config.ssh.username then you can use that other user and not have vagrant user at all.. Alvaro's comment is fully correct, but you have to be aware that some Ansible settings can bypass Vagrant's `config.ssh.username`. See "WHY DOES THE ANSIBLE PROVISIONER CONNECT AS THE WRONG USER?" section at the end of http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/provisioning/ansible.html. It also means that you can use these settings to control the ansible provisioning user...
