Hello Everyone, I am trying to run sync for /home directory and everything within this directory (including permissions) between Ansible Controller Node and Remote Node. I would like to run this sync on Controller Node and it will basically run based on defined time to keep files/folders/permissions synced inside /home between both systems. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks ---
