I'm installing Streisand on a VM behind a firewall. We NAT our SSH traffic from a non-standard port to the default port 22 on the VM. But for the outside world the port is e.g. 32002. What changes need to be made so that my machine can contact the Streisand VM on port 32002 to run the setup scripts? Can I add a line to streisand.yml? What should this be? I've tried a couple but when running the playbook it returns: ERROR: Invalid ini entry: 10022 - need more than 1 value to unpack

This comment is significantly out of date. It will not work with Streisand's master branch

END WARNING

Modify the inventory file so it looks like this:

[localhost]
127.0.0.1 ansible_python_interpreter=python

# Uncomment the following lines and update the IP address if you would
# like to use Streisand to configure a server that is already running
# (e.g. a server at a provider not natively supported by Streisand).
#
# Multiple servers can be configured simultaneously if multiple IP
# addresses are defined.
#
# If you already have SSH fingerprints for the hosts you are configuring
# (e.g. using `ssh-keyscan`) then you should also comment out the
# 'host_key_checking = False' line in the ansible.cfg file. That setting
# is only sensible and convenient when connecting to a brand-new host.
#
[streisand-host]
255.255.255.255 ansible_ssh_port=32002 ansible_ssh_user=root

Replace 255.255.255.255 with the external IP address of the VM, and change the other variables on the same line as necessary. Then you should be able to run this command to configure everything:

ansible-playbook playbooks/streisand.yml

At the end of the run, you'll see two files in the generated-docs directory. One of them will have connection information, the other will contain the necessary ports that you'll have to open up on the firewall for various services. Let me know if this works for you!

Exactly the config I was looking for. Cheers. Have I missed this in the documentation of Streisand or is this Ansible specific? Thanks again.

Awesome thanks!

This way of configuring should be added to the docs :)

The initial question has been answered so I'm going to close this issue. I don't think this is sufficiently common to be included in the docs at present. Thanks!

@jlund (or anyone) I modified the inventory file (in the inventories folder).
I ran ansible-playbook playbooks/streisand.yml (in the streisand folder) but:

[...] /streisand# ansible-playbook playbooks/streisand.yml
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ansible-playbook", line 40, in <module>
    from ansible.errors import AnsibleError, AnsibleOptionsError, AnsibleParserError
ImportError: No module named 'ansible'

I need to use a custom ssh port for Existing server.

This is one more case.
Can someone explain me?

I ran ansible-playbook playbooks/streisand.yml (in the streisand folder)

@Scorpion2185 You should use the ./streisand wrapper script instead of directly invoking Ansible.

ImportError: No module named 'ansible'

This is an error unrelated to the custom SSH port - Double check you followed the README setup instructions for installing Ansible in a virtualenv.

This is one more case.

I recommend you open a new issue on the Streisand discussions repo if you still need help after troubleshooting your Ansible installation and using the wrapper script. The problems you're having aren't related to the original question in this thread so I'm going to lock it to prevent further splintering. Thanks for understanding!
