Does anyone have a good example set of playbooks that I can use for leaning purposes that does the basis setup of a couple of servers.

I am looking for something basic that does:

sudo to root  
SSH key copy

Install a few packages

Plus any other useful examples.  
I have found a few useful examples on GitHub but they are for Ubuntu (example below).

This is one:

Git: [https://github.com/tomoconnor/parallax.git](https://github.com/tomoconnor/parallax.git) )  
Documentation: [http://tomoconnor.eu/blogish/getting-started-ansible/#.VMrD0y4oL3R](http://tomoconnor.eu/blogish/getting-started-ansible/#.VMrD0y4oL3R)

However I am getting a bit lost changing the Ubuntu references to RHEL and I don’t think that it is helping the leaning Ansible part.

I am looking for the sort of setup that is commonly used prior to more specific configuration.

Many thanks
