As a matter of fact they all do start with zero. I understand your explanation, but one thing bothers me about it: when this playbook ran earlier on four machines, those site numbers all started with 0 and we had no problem, and on this run all 6 started with 0 and we only had the problem on 4 machines. I believe that if ansible were treating these as oct it would be consistent in doing so, but I've been using ansible for over a year now, with the 4 digit identifiers in almost every playbook, but never has this happened before.
