Hi All,
I'm trying to execute the following playbook:

-bash-4.1$ cat edit_backup.yml
---
- name: editing backup
  hosts: test

  tasks:
  - name: copy new backup.sh file
    copy: src=backup.sh dest=/usr/local/bin/backup.sh owner=root group=bin 
mode=700

on a machine that has an ansbile service account user with sudo privileges. 
I can log into the machine just just fine as this ansible user and execute 
sudo commands.

But when I execute this playbook using the following, I get:

-bash-4.1$ ansible-playbook -vvv edit_backup.yml -i hosts -u ansible 
--ask-pass
SSH password:

I tested this on two separate virtual machines on my desktop with a local 
ansible account on the target machines with sudo privileges and it works 
just fine. 

Any suggestions as to what might be blocking ansible from executing sudo 
commands? I'm assuming that's why the "Destination /usr/local/bin not 
writable" message shows up.

Thanks,
Nic
