New inetd role #67

Open robinvy opened 4 years ago

robinvy commented 4 years ago

Can we modify this configuration file?

dberg1 commented 4 years ago

I could not find any existing inetd module for Ansible. If it is just a matter of modifying /etc/inetd.conf, one could use replace module to change the lines in the file.

Here is an example showing how to disable telnet and ftpd on an AIX system using Ansible replace and service core modules.

- hosts: aix
  gather_facts: no

  handlers:
  - name: restart inetd
    service: name=inetd state=restarted
  tasks:
  - name: disable ftpd and telnet
    replace:
      path: /etc/inetd.conf
      regexp: '^(ftp\s|telnet\s)'
      replace: '#\1'
      backup: yes
      owner: root
      group: system
      mode: 0664
    notify: restart inetd

May be good to create a role to ease typical actions.
