This is somewhat limiting to set directory to writable from 755 for instance to 775 so user running ansible can use template to replace file especially "service" startup file in /etc/init.d. Even if my user is already using can "become" as root to write the file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
