Hash types available depend on the control system running Ansible, 'hash' depends on `hashlib <https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/hashlib.html>`_, password_hash depends on `passlib <https://passlib.readthedocs.io/en/stable/lib/passlib.hash.html>`_. The `crypt <https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/crypt.html>`_ is used as a fallback if ``passlib`` is not installed.
