I can find a lot of information on launching a playbook from VMWare’s vRealize/VRO to run on a Linux server but not on launching a playbook from VRO to run on a Windows server. With the connection between the Ansible Management server and Windows being WinRM/Kerberos, I am wondering what the best approach would be? Since Kerberos is using the krb5.conf file for the connection, must this file be maintained via a Python script (for example) when the server is provisioned and decommissioned? Is there any information available regarding the best way to approach this - best practices?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,

Bob Wieberdink
