I am responsible for maintaining two Debian servers. Every time I have to do anything with security certificates, I Google for tutorials and beat away until it finally works. However, in my search.
OpenSSH
, the cryptography
backend has to be used. Please note that the PyOpenSSL backend was deprecated in Ansible 2.9 and will be removed in Ansible 2.13.”The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
OpenSSH
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
---|---|---|
attributes string | The attributes the resulting file or directory should have. To get supported flags look at the man page for chattr on the target system. This string should contain the attributes in the same order as the one displayed by lsattr. The = operator is assumed as default, otherwise + or - operators need to be included in the string. | |
backup added in 2.8 |
| Create a backup file including a timestamp so you can get the original public key back if you overwrote it with a different one by accident. |
force boolean |
| Should the key be regenerated even it it already exists. |
format string |
| |
group | Name of the group that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown. | |
mode string | The permissions the resulting file or directory should have. For those used to /usr/bin/chmod remember that modes are actually octal numbers. You must either add a leading zero so that Ansible's YAML parser knows it is an octal number (like 0644 or 01777 ) or quote it (like '644' or '1777' ) so Ansible receives a string and can do its own conversion from string into number.Giving Ansible a number without following one of these rules will end up with a decimal number which will have unexpected results. As of Ansible 1.8, the mode may be specified as a symbolic mode (for example, u+rwx or u=rw,g=r,o=r ).As of Ansible 2.6, the mode may also be the special string preserve .When set to preserve the file will be given the same permissions as the source file. | |
owner string | Name of the user that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown. | |
path path / required | Name of the file in which the generated TLS/SSL public key will be written. | |
privatekey_passphrase string | The passphrase for the private key. | |
privatekey_path path | Path to the TLS/SSL private key from which to generate the public key. | |
select_crypto_backend added in 2.9 |
| Determines which crypto backend to use. The default choice is auto , which tries to use cryptography if available, and falls back to pyopenssl .If set to pyopenssl , will try to use the pyOpenSSL library.If set to cryptography , will try to use the cryptography library. |
selevel string | Default: | The level part of the SELinux file context. This is the MLS/MCS attribute, sometimes known as the range .When set to _default , it will use the level portion of the policy if available. |
serole string | When set to _default , it will use the role portion of the policy if available. | |
setype string | When set to _default , it will use the type portion of the policy if available. | |
seuser string | By default it uses the system policy, where applicable.When set to _default , it will use the user portion of the policy if available. | |
state string |
| Whether the public key should exist or not, taking action if the state is different from what is stated. |
unsafe_writes boolean |
| Influence when to use atomic operation to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target file. By default this module uses atomic operations to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target files, but sometimes systems are configured or just broken in ways that prevent this. One example is docker mounted files, which cannot be updated atomically from inside the container and can only be written in an unsafe manner. This option allows Ansible to fall back to unsafe methods of updating files when atomic operations fail (however, it doesn't force Ansible to perform unsafe writes). IMPORTANT! Unsafe writes are subject to race conditions and can lead to data corruption. |
