I am not using key authentication - userid and password.  I've checked 
multiple times to ensure it is the correct userid and password.  I've tried 
using --ask-pass as well as entering the user name and password in the 
hosts file.

I'm using ansible version. 2.14.4 against CentOS 7 and Debian hosts.

My secure log says it is looking for a public key, which I do not have set 
up.  The sshd_config file clearly states "PasswordAuthentication yes".

I use the same user in my ansible hosts file as when I ssh in.
