Simple ansible role to install and config xinetd to proxy connections

Supports Red Hat and Debian based distros

1. xinetd_proxy_config_path defaults to /etc/xinetd.d
2. xinetd_proxy_cleanup defaults to false

If cleanup is set to true the role removes various default services that are included in OS packages.

None

To define the services you will need to use a dict called xinetd_proxy_services. An example to proxy a connection to your router's admin interface via a VPN is included below:

xinetd_proxy_services:
  - name: router
    disable: 'no'
    socket_type: stream
    protocol: tcp
    wait: 'no'
    only_from: "10.0.1.0/16"
    user: nobody
    listen_address: "{{ ansible_tun0.ipv4.address }}"
    listen_port: 80
    target_address: "{{ ansible_default_ipv4.gateway }}"
    target_port: 80
