anxs / hostname Goto Github PK

Getting the following error when running anxs.hostname under ansible 2.9.2

Also the same issue for the Hostname | Install MDNS Components step

On a Debian, Ubuntu system this role will cause the hostname to be incorrectly set.

The output of "hostname -f" should return the FQDN of the host. However, this will return "localhost" on a machine with this role applied.

This is due to localhost being the first entry in /etc/hosts. If this is moved to the end so either the FQDN (or short name if not set) is first then hostname will now resolve properly.

Trying to run this on a ec2 host, I can't ssh as root, need to as a different user. Would be nice if this worked in those cases. The user is an sudoer.
