Ansible Role: Server

Base Ansible role for a Nexcess "server". This role should be common across all Ansible playbooks and provides basics including:

Server update (toggable)
Default "good" pathing (so things like SCL PHPs are in the default path)
Common limit increases (file handles, memory, etc)
Installs typical utilities we need (telnet, tcpdump, nc, etc)
Installs our base repo + GPG keys and EPEL
Sets up base NTP
Provides a simple iptables based firewall interface with good default rules
IMPORTANT - handles setting up of /etc/hosts for an entire project inventory. This includes both internal and external IPs. It follows the inventory standard of backnet_addr=xx.xx.xx.xx and frontnet_addr=yy.yy.yy.yy and will automatically add the "-int" to the end of your inventory short name.

Role Variables

Lots, but just about everything is overridable. See defaults/main.yml
