ansible-openssh

This ansible role installs and configures openssh

Caveats

1. Currently this is limited to configuring sshd_config, but will eventually be extended to ssh_config as well.
2. Not all possible configuration values are provided in defaults/main.yml as there are so many differences between operating systems and openssh versions
3. sshd_config options are prefixed with opensshd_, ssh_config options will be prefixed with openssh_

Requirements

This role requires Ansible 1.4 higher and platforms listed in the metadata file.
