Hi Jon
Thanks for the response.
I was actually able to find a work around. Not a great solution, so will
look at win_template.
---
- name: Add host file entries
hosts: all
tasks:
- name: Add host file entries
win_lineinfile:
dest: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
Thanks Jon
I will take a look at the link and see if it can help me.
Cheers

blockinfile is not a windows module unfortunately.
There is an as yet un merged module for manipulating the windows hosts file
though - perhaps give that a try
- https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/1455
Hope that helps,

Lots of examples of the various ways to loop
here: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_loops.html#standard-loops
Depending on what you are trying to achieve, you might actually find the
win_template module is easier to work with rather than multiple calls to
win_lineinfile
Hope this help
Hi Matt
How exactly would that look like in a playbook?
Cheers
