Is it possible to provide options to ssh to enable tty?

When I SSH into a host it requires tty to perform sudo commands, is it possible to tell ansible to use “-t” or “-t -t” when SSHing to a host? I’m also on CentOS6 so it’s using paramiko.

Thanks.

Hi, I'm afraid I don't quite understand the problem you're scenario.
What are you trying to do and how is it failing?

Thanks,

I found the answer (thanks to Faux in irc), in ansible.cfg you can set specify “ssh_args” if you’re using OpenSSH (which I’m not now but will once I upgrade to a newer OS or version of OpenSSH).

In my case, I’d add the following to ansible.cfg

ssh_args = -t -t
