Some of my infrastructure is “controlled” via Centrify and uses dzdo as sudo replacement, the rest just plain sudo.

I can configure sudo\_exe in ansible.cfg (works), but I cannot set this per server as I would need it. Any way to achieve this?

Thanks,

Joseph

sudo\_exe is presently not configurable as an inventory variable.

Pull requests for this would be entertained (I’d suggest the variable be ansible\_sudo\_exe), otherwise file a feature idea ticket at [github.com/ansible/ansible](http://github.com/ansible/ansible) – though I will say the pull request has a much higher chance of getting dealt with sooner 🙂
