The real question is why you're torturing yourself by manually fixing that stuff? Don't you terraform your Ansibles?

That is a very good question. It all started as a dainty test setup, and I guess, we had lost the routine of always scripting hardware setups, because our previous project hadn't required it.

Obviously, the second-best time to start doing it is now, but I'd need to properly learn one of these first to be able to lead the way on that.
Which collides with me not really wanting to use any of the ones I've experienced so far (Ansible, Puppet) in my freetime. 🫠

Ansible is actually pretty nice, if you get the hang of it. Not perfect, but better than triple tunnel ssh.

You could simply automate step by step, each time you change something, you add that to the playbook and over time you should end up with a good setup.

Flakey dev setups are productivity killers.
