Abhijit Menon-Sen	3ad9b4cba6	Rework additional ssh argument handling ... Now we have the following ways to set additional arguments: 1. [ssh_connection]ssh_args in ansible.cfg: global setting, prepended to every command line for ssh/scp/sftp. Overrides default ControlPersist settings. 2. ansible_ssh_common_args inventory variable. Appended to every command line for ssh/scp/sftp. Used in addition to ssh_args, if set above, or the default settings. 3. ansible_{sftp,scp,ssh}_extra_args inventory variables. Appended to every command line for the relevant binary only. Used in addition to #1 and #2, if set above, or the default settings. 3. Using the --ssh-common-args or --{sftp,scp,ssh}-extra-args command line options (which are overriden by #2 and #3 above). This preserves backwards compatibility (for ssh_args in ansible.cfg), but also permits global settings (e.g. ProxyCommand via _common_args) or ssh-specific options (e.g. -R via ssh_extra_args).

James Cammarata	6650ba7654	Squashed commit of the following: ... commit 9921bb9d20 Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Mon Aug 10 20:19:44 2015 +0530 Document --ssh-extra-args command-line option commit 8b25595e7b Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Thu Aug 13 13:24:57 2015 +0530 Don't disable GSSAPI/Pubkey authentication when using --ask-pass This commit is based on a bug report and PR by kolbyjack (#6846) which was subsequently closed and rebased as #11690. The original problem was: «The password on the delegated host is different from the one I provided on the command line, so it had to use the pubkey, and the main host doesn't have a pubkey on it yet, so it had to use the password.» (This commit is revised and included here because #11690 would conflict with the changes in #11908 otherwise.) Closes #11690 commit 119d032389 Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Thu Aug 13 11:16:42 2015 +0530 Be more explicit about why SSH arguments are added This adds vvvvv log messages that spell out in detail where each SSH command-line argument is obtained from. Unfortunately, we can't be sure if, say, self._play_context.remote_user is obtained from ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER in the environment, remote_user in ansible.cfg, -u on the command line, or an ansible_ssh_user setting in the inventory or on a task or play. In some cases, e.g. timeout, we can't even be sure if it was set by the user or just a default. Nevertheless, on the theory that at five v's you can use all the hints available, I've mentioned the possible sources in the log messages. Note that this caveat applies only to the arguments that ssh.py adds by itself. In the case of ssh_args and ssh_extra_args, we know where they are from, and say so, though we can't say WHERE in the inventory they may be set (e.g. in host_vars or group_vars etc.). commit b605c285ba Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Tue Aug 11 15:19:43 2015 +0530 Add a FAQ entry about ansible_ssh_extra_args commit 49f8edd035 Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Mon Aug 10 20:48:50 2015 +0530 Allow ansible_ssh_args to be set as an inventory variable Before this change, ssh_args could be set only in the [ssh_connection] section of ansible.cfg, and was applied to all hosts. Now it's possible to set ansible_ssh_args as an inventory variable (directly, or through group_vars or host_vars) to selectively override the global setting. Note that the default ControlPath settings are applied only if ssh_args is not set, and this is true of ansible_ssh_args as well. So if you want to override ssh_args but continue to set ControlPath, you'll need to repeat the appropriate options when setting ansible_ssh_args. (If you only need to add options to the default ssh_args, you may be able to use the ansible_ssh_extra_args inventory variable instead.) commit 37c1a5b679 Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Mon Aug 10 19:42:30 2015 +0530 Allow overriding ansible_ssh_extra_args on the command-line This patch makes it possible to do: ansible somehost -m setup \ --ssh-extra-args '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q user@bouncer.example.com"' This overrides the inventory setting, if any, of ansible_ssh_extra_args. Based on a patch originally by @Richard2ndQuadrant. commit b023ace8a8 Author: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@2ndQuadrant.com> Date: Mon Aug 10 19:06:19 2015 +0530 Add an ansible_ssh_extra_args inventory variable This can be used to configure a per-host or per-group ProxyCommand to connect to hosts through a jumphost, e.g.: inventory: [gatewayed] foo ansible_ssh_host=192.0.2.1 group_vars/gatewayed.yml: ansible_ssh_extra_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q bounceuser@gateway.example.com"' Note that this variable is used in addition to any ssh_args configured in the [ssh_connection] section of ansible.cfg (so you don't need to repeat the ControlPath settings in ansible_ssh_extra_args).	9 years ago

Michael Scherer	f8b23e5721	add a default value for the -d option of ansible-pull ... Thi permit to simplify the command line to use by using a sensible default, and so reduce the number of incorrect possible choices and setup needed. Among potential incorrect choices is using a fixed directory in /tmp, which could be problematic with a setup whose access is not properly restricted.	11 years ago
