Hi, I Have a WSL2 on my Windows 10 Pro with Ubuntu 22.04.02 LTS. My Ansible version: ```auto ansible 2.10.8 config file = None configured module search path = ['/root/.ansible/plugins/modules', '/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules'] ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ansible executable location = /usr/bin/ansible python version = 3.10.12 (main, Jun 11 2023, 05:26:28) [GCC 11.4.0] ``` When I execute my playbook have this error: ```auto fatal: [192.168.232.30]: {"changed": false, "msg": "credssp: Received error status from the server: (3221225581) STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE 0xc000006d", "unreachable": true} ansible-playbook -i "$ans_sh_target," -e "ansible_connection=winrm ansible_ssh_port=5986 ansible_user="$ans_sh_usr" ansible_password="$ans_sh_pwd" ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation=ignore ansible_winrm_transport=credssp" main.yml ``` The VM is reachable at 192.168.232.30 with all open ports Regards Massimo ---

Hi, welcome to the Ansible Community forum and thanks for your message! However, this is more suited for the #Get Help category, if it’s ok with you, I can transfer it. Please do not send direct messages for such issues 🙂 Thanks, Carol / Ansible Community Team. ---

Assuming the username and password are correct and WinRM is correctly configured with the ports opened, you can try to use `ntlm` for the transport and post those results/errors. If so then we know the setup, at a basic level is working. Next, you’ll need to ensure [all the prerequisite steps](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/os_guide/windows_winrm.html#credssp) have been completed to ensure the entire environment is configured correctly and reply with the results/errors. ---

Hi, I solved the problem my install.sh that was this: ```auto #!/bin/sh -v ans_sh_target='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' ans_sh_usr='bnxroot' #ans_sh_pwd='XXX' read -s -p "Indicare la password per l'utente $ans_sh_usr: " ans_sh_pwd ansible-playbook -i "$ans_sh_target," --become -e "ansible_connection=ssh ansible_user="$ans_sh_usr" ansible_password="$ans_sh_pwd" ansible_become_pass="$ans_sh_pwd" " main.yml ``` change this #!/bin/sh -v with 🙂 ```auto #!/bin/bash -v ``` Thanks ---

Hi @maxmin , thank you for sharing your own solution. I’m tagging your last comment as the solution, even if you solved it yourself 🙂 A couple of comments to help you in the future: 1. I would recommend you upgrade Ansible. The version 2.10 you are using is at end of life. 2. I just edited your posts to include the “code blocks” tag, so the scripts show in a box, and makes it clear and keeps format. In case you use email, it’s 3 single ticks to open and to close like this: ````` code ` ```` ---
