Codespaces Learning Curve - Test Driving Ansible and kicking the tires.

WARNING Public Repo

Ansible Example two servers

server-1: 34.211.146.158
server-2: 52.41.107.116

SSH Setup - make sure you have valid keys

Server (here for this example)

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096
ls -l ~/.ssh/id_*.pub

Copy keys to servers - password will be asked

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub cloud_user@34.211.146.158
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub cloud_user@52.41.107.116
result: Number of key(s) added: 1

Test SSH login with keys, this should login directly without password

ssh cloud_user@34.211.146.158
ssh cloud_user@52.41.107.116

Other commands

ssh-add -l
eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

ansible all -m ping -v -i ansible/hosts -u cloud_user

Ping test via Anisble - with playbook
