Q: How to define Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communication (always) with ansible win_regedit I want to select Define this policy setting for Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communication (always) in the Group Policy on Windows Server with Ansible and select Disabled radio button. The following image shows the desired result.
enter image description here
I am using the following role:
- name: Disable SMB signing
  win_regedit:
    path: HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
    name: RequireSecuritySignature
    value: 0
    type: dword
    state: present

Ansible plays the above role just fine and prints the following message:
TASK [active-directory : Disable SMB signing] **********************************
ok: [192.168.106.131]

However, nothing is changed on the Windows Server and the policy remains Not Defined. Can anybody help?

A: This is by design. Group Policy uses different types of files to push out settings, these files are the middle-men that the MMCs read. As such, unless you make the change in Group Policy, you wont see it reflected in it. The registry key itself is the absolute check.
