Re: [ansible-project] Updating of files in /etc

I would start by looking at what user you are running Ansible as, it sounds like you need to specify sudo.

I am trying to keep the hosts file synchronized on several ubuntu hosts and getting:

msg: Destination /etc not writable

I have tried using the copy module and the synchronize module and running into the same issue.  I can get the rsync command to work if I use the --inplace option.  Is there a way to change the default behaviour of how Ansible runs rsync?  It is using it with the delayed updates:

cmd": "rsync --delay-updates -FF

Can I turn that off or change it?

Also I think I replied already to this, but there's no way to override rsync flags at this time for synchronize modules.

This could possibly be a parameter or we might just change the default, depending.
