Ansible apache role

A very simple role that ensures that the Apache webserver is installed and running.

This also exposes the restart_httpd handler.

Variables

Variables

Reason

As many functions use the Apache webserver, it seems sane to make a separate role for that and add it as a requirement to all roles that need Apache.

This role also opens incoming port 80 and 443.

Requirements

Nothing special.
