AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

Hi,

I use Ansible to manage my servers.
One of my hosts can't be managed by Ansible, I get an error but he's configured like some other servers :

Hosts file /etc/ansible/hosts :

[test]
ns1 ansible_ssh_port=2222
ns2 ansible_ssh_port=2222

Playbook sample :

---
- hosts: test
  remote_user: admin
  tasks:
    - name: Upgrade All
      apt:
        update_cache=yes
        upgrade=full
      sudo: yes

Ansible 1.8.3 under Debian 7, servers under Debian 7

ansible --version
  ansible 1.8.3
  configured module search path = None

Test ok :

ansible -m ping ns2
ns2 | success >> {
    "changed": false,
    "ping": "pong"
}

Playbook fails :

Just checked your example and it worked nicely. What ansible version do you have?
