    IRC ##proxmox on Freenode

    The new IRC channel ##proxmox on Freenode is now open. Please be advised this is an UNOFFICIAL support channel which is why this channel has a double hash in a similar way to ##linux or ##vyatta The other channel "#proxmox" hopefully will be evacuated as time goes by, there is no active...

And yes the obligation that comes with that is at this address... ftp://download.proxmox.com/sources/ Buuuuuuut.... surely we can get more bugs fixed, more features...

    Resellers of Proxmox VE virtual machines

    Hi, I think it would be cool if the wiki could contain an informal list of people who have deployed Proxmox VE (and if they're using the OpenVZ/KVM kernel or the KVM only kernel) who are selling virtual machines and what country they are in. Then obviously link off to their sites for more...

    No MTA please

    OK, Pretty simple they come with Postfix, you can choose Exim instead. No option to have no MTA however... how come! If I was installing the real Debian and select no tasks when tasksel is presented upon installation (not even "Standard system") then I would get no MTA. To my mind choosing...

    Backups and snapshots...

    Hey a few questions about backups and snapshots... 1) Is it possible to get the backup process (for OpenVZ containers) to backup plain files without tar or gzip and perhaps do this via rsync so it only copies what has changed. This would certainly be a worthy option to include host-side as it...

    OpenVZ veth0 vs eth0

    Hey, I run the Untangle firewall as a Kernel-based Virtual Machine with two virtual NIC's, it's LAN side interface eth0 is connected to vmbr0 and it's WAN side eth1 to vmbr1. In turn vmbr0 is connected to the hosts physical eth0 port to other LAN side physical equipment and vmbr1 is connected...

    OpenVZ machines don't restart

    Hey, Just a quicky... if I shutdown a server (say using shutdown -h now or halt) then the status of that container turns into "mounted". If I restart it (using shutdown -r now or reboot) then the exact same happens and it doesn't come back unless I go in to the Proxmox VE GUI and start it back...

    Postfix main.cf - Did you guys make this yourself?

    Hey, I like to use a minimal install of Debian 5.0 i386/amd64 when creating servers. So if I was installing on a KVM or physical machine I'd normally use the netinst ISO and when tasksel appears during installation I untick "Desktop environment" and also "Standard system" leaving no package...

    I'm completely fed up...

    Hey, I've read loads of threads on this forum and on the Zimbra forum about getting it working on OpenVZ or Virtuozzo... this is NOT going to be another one of those threads. However I am going to use Zimbra as an example of the scenario I'm trying to a) understand and b) solve. When you make...

    Mac OS X support. Recompiling PVE QEMU/KVM

    Hi, I have a little MacMini laying about that I've successfully installed Proxmox VE on. Previous to that it ran Ubuntu 8.10 and I managed to compile a version of KVM that included support for running Mac OS X virtually (I only barely need it, wanted my full disk allotted to Ubuntu). So...

    Change logging in as root

    Hey, As a rule of thumb on any server, even if it's local only, even if there's no ports opened to it... I always make myself another user and add it to the sudoers and disable root like this... passwd -d -l root Unfortunately if you remove the password from root, or lock root, or both (like...

    Build for i386

    Lo, Soon we'll be getting a new Dell R200 to use as our head (with KVM support on the quad Xeon). But for now I'd love to start building openvz machines (not kvm) on our existing machine (which is not amd64 capable). If Proxmox VE is just a collection of small utilities/scripts plus a (I'm...

    Kind of a Proxmox VE enquiry...

    Hey folks, Love Proxmox VE as I think all of us do or we wouldn't be here... I'm wondering if perhaps the team could reveal to us the method they used to mix the CD ISO? From what I understand it's a Debian Lenny netinst, with LVM mode set, and your packages installed. Can you tell us how...

    What kernel does 1.4beta use?

    See the subject :D I'm hoping it's 2.6.26 or 2.6.27 which OpenVZ now have on offer, got a few patches of my own I would like to put into the kernel which a openvz virtual machine will need (but the patches work with 2.6.26 onwards).

    I want to buy a VPS from -YOU-

    Hey, Simply put I'm tired of skimming past VPS hosters in the US trying to work out if they're virtuozzo, xen, vmware, or worse hypervm... So if you use OpenVZ and Proxmox and you can offer a VPS in the US let me know. We are a non-profit open source foundation in the UK and need a US...
