Hi;

  During "gathering facts", ssh encounters a situation; ansible
suggests using -vvvv; where does one set this?

I'm using bash shell to call Ansible playbooks on a Mac running as a
VirtualBox server and on a Ubuntu 14.04 (server) VirtualBox vm and the
Ubuntu vm hosts a pair of Docker containers.

The *.pem and *.pem.pub are specified in a keys directory on the Mac
VirtualBox server and the contents of the *.pem.pub file is in the
.ssh/authorized_keys file on the VirtualBox guest in the generic
account account we use to communicate from host to guest.

Several files are also visible on the guest OS via VirtualBox Shared Folders.

So, to enable/facilitate greater level of debugging, where does the
extra ssh verbosity setting go?

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott

You set it on the command line such as:

ansible-playbook -i inventory -vvvv site.yml

Thank you, Matt.

It was so obvious, and yet I couldn't see it until last night :slight_smile:

I have more output now and it looks really weird; another thread for that.

Thanks,
Ken
