Is this home dir connected with an 'administrator' user? It could be that ansible is using the wrong user key to connect with what looks like 'root' on the other machine.<br>
<br>
Hopefully its just a matter of which user is being used on which side.<br>
<br>
You might also want to take a look at the ansible config file. Mine is in /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg which has lines like:<br>
<br>
poll_interval = 15<br>
sudo_user = root<br>
#ask_sudo_pass = True<br>
#ask_pass = True<br>
transport = smart<br>
remote_port = 22<br>
<br>
I think you can be specific about what users are used instead of assuming it knows what you really mean. :-)<br>
