Ansible Roles
CSF
My CSF Ansible role handles the full installation and deployment of a CSF firewall on several different linux distros!
Nagios NRPE Server
This Nagios NRPE role handles the installation (assuming there is a package!) and configuration of NRPE on most core linux distributions.
It still needs a tad of work on configuring checks (at the moment its just a flat file instead of yaml 😔) but it's production ready!
