playbook creates duplicate configuration lines

[Brian]

Running this playbook will create multiple entries for the same option in some configuration files. The primary file I've seen this in is /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Rather than modifying an existing entry, the playbook ignores it and appends a new entry to the end of the file. I would recommend changing this to modify any existing entry and avoid duplicates.

Is this happening on ansible-hardening role?

Or are you thinking of the aio playbook?

Could you give us more details about how to reproduce the issue?

It happens with the ansible-hardening role. Simply apply the changes to
sshd_config and you will see multiple lines of the same option.
