# Openssh configuration role

This role installed and configures the openssh server.

## Usage

You can just include the role without any configuration and sshd will be

configured with default values:

    ...

    roles:

      - sshd

However, this role allows almost every sshd configuration option present in

ssh_config to be changed. The variable names are of the form

sshd_variable_name, for example `sshd_permit_root_login`. Take a look at

`defaults/main.yml` for a full list of variables that can be configured.

A good example configuration to use (just place these into your

`group_vars/groupname` file or wherever you are setting variables) would be:

    sshd_permit_root_login: "no"

    sshd_password_authentication: "no"

    sshd_allow_tcp_forwarding: "no"

Note that if you put 'yes' or 'no' as the value for a configuration option, it

must be enclosed in quotes, otherwise ansible will interpret it as a boolean

and put an incorrect value in the configuration file.
