Changelog

[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.
