I just released a whole bunch of roles (basic server setup, security hardening, firewall, nginx (from package or even from source - fully customizable with modules), mysql, python, postfix, dovecot, oracle JDK, scala, vpn,…) I have been writing them and used/tested them extensively over the past couple of months. You can find the [here](https://github.com/pjan/the-ansibles), and they should benefit anyone looking to learn from example or cut time in writing scripts themselves. Addendum: based on the above, I wrote an idiot-proof [tutorial and script](https://github.com/pjan/the-ansibles/blob/master/docs/cloudbox.md) to set up your own personal server (secured mail, webserver, vpn, …). Off course: open to comments and (pull)requests! ---

I would remove all the playbooks in the roles directory that don’t use roles. [https://github.com/pjan/the-ansibles/tree/master/roles](https://github.com/pjan/the-ansibles/tree/master/roles) ---
