Changelog

[v0.20.0] - 2023-06-19

New Features

• feat: debian 12 support and small config fixes for debian (#238)

  This PR adds Debian 12 (aka bookworm) support to the role. The workflow fails at the moment because there is no roles-ansible/check-ansible-debian-bookworm-action repo yet. As soon as @DO1JLR has created the repo it should pass all checks.

  Furthermore i fixed some small oversights in older debian defaults.

• feat: Fix alpine tests by adding a new configuration options (#240)

Other Changes

• proper Subsystem sftp default for RHEL9 (#220)

  Basically the same as for RHEL6/7/8

• ci: Add pull request template and run commitlint on PR title only (#237)

  We now ensure the conventional commits format only on PR titles and not on commits to let developers keep commit messages targeted for other developers i.e. describe actual changes to code that users should not care about. And PR titles, on the contrary, must be aimed at end users.

  For more info, see https://linux-system-roles.github.io/contribute.html#write-a-good-pr-title-and-description

• chore: moved debian 7 (wheezy) config to explicit file (#239)

  This removes the defaults/Debian.yml file and moves it to the defaults/Debian_7.yml file. This prohibits rolling out ancient config on new Debian-Systems which aren't supported by this role.

[v0.17.0] - 2022-08-31

New Features

• Make drop-in config file functionality configurable by user

This PR simplifies the logic behind the drop-in config files and also allows the user to use drop-in configs even if the distribution does not support it out of the box.

Bug Fixes

• Allow user to override variables

A previous commit hardcoded many variables to the values under vars/, making it impossible for the user to parameterize things like the systemd service name. The assumption was that the _sshd* variables were useless in an effort to blindly adhere to best practices, but they were crucial in allowing flexibility to the user.

Other Changes

• none

[v0.16.1] - 2022-07-28

New Features

• add parameter RSAMinSize

Add support for the new RSAMinSize parameter.

Bug Fixes

• Ensure values are cast to correct type

https://github.com/willshersystems/ansible-sshd/issues/188 This shouldn't be necessary, but there seems no way to guarantee using a version of Jinja which doesn't have this problem.

In addition - it is not good practice to compare values to true or false - instead, just ensure the value is a bool type and evaluate in a boolean context.

Other Changes

• Addition notes about secondary variables
• Fix various linting issues
• Revert incorrect module name
• tests: Do not be picky about spaces/tabs

When testing with cloud-init, it modifies the sshd_configuration and can replace some tabs with whitespaces. This happens frequently around the subsystem keyword. There are no functional changes, but the matching did not work as expected.
