Directory on Network Chucks Stackscript is not there
Good Afternoon All
I have used one of network chucks stackscripts so I can learn about Ansible yet the directory that he talks about /etc/ansible is not present. Please can you suggest what I or Network chuck has done wrong please?

Without knowing specifically which stackscript or video you're using, it's hard to say. You may just be able to make the directory if the goal is for you to put files in that directory rather than there being files there you need to use already in that folder.
If you just need the directory to exist so you can put stuff there, you can use our Terminal Guide to see how to use the mkdircommand, but it would generally be mkdir /etc/ansible. Depending on who and what needs to access that directory and its files and in what capacity, you may need to also need to use chmod to modify the permissions.
You may also want to check out this blog post. It sounds like someone is using Network Chuck's information to use Ansible and Linode for a project. They talk about two ways to install Ansible and point out that one method included that directory and the other didn't. I'd recommend reading through that to see if it helps you figure out a better way to install Ansible or how to move forward with the current installation.
