Good afternoon, how to connect in windows and linux (rdp and ssh) through a gateway (password vault) with ansible.  
Example: To access normally via ssh I use:

# ssh [root@192.168.0.1](mailto:root@192.168.0.1)@gateway.intranet

This prompts you for the domain username and password, and then the root password.

How can I make ansible connect to servers that need this authentication?

Thanks in advance.

Try something like this in your inventory:

192.168.0.1 ansible\_user=root ansible\_ssh\_common\_args='-o  
ProxyJump="gateway.intranet"'
