Can you not put an ssh key on the host? a single account can have multiple keys
From: ansible-project@googlegroups.com <ansible-project@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Go Away Sent: 13 October 2020 12:50 To: Ansible Project <ansible-project@googlegroups.com> Subject: [ansible-project] Failing host (or better still - a group of hosts) after one login failure. I have (again ;->) a quite unusual situation. I have a bunch of hosts to which I connect with ansible to perform some tasks. The problem is that they are not mine alone and the authentication is done with password and is based on some central directory service. So I have a shared account for some servers and since the password gets aged-out, there may be a situation that my password stored in keepass is no longer valid. If I try to run a playbook against an inventory file consiting of some of the servers for which the password is no longer valid I end up locking myself out of the account. So is there a way to make ansible give up on a host (or even better - on a whole bunch of hosts sharing the same credentials) if I get even a single login failure?
