Hello! I have a problem on my Proxmox. Few days ago I lost the ability to get at web interface. Proxmox tells me that login or password is incorrect. But if I try to connect using ssh - it works. What should i do? I'd greatly appreciate.
 
Perhaps an invalid authentication realm has been selected. The login dialog has

User Name:
Password:
Realm:


The third item needs to be "Linux Pam standard authentication" to use the same accounts that you use for ssh.

I tried them both. There was "Linux Pam standard authentication". Server had been working for a long time (several years) but a few days ago it happend. I tried to choose Realm but it brought no success.
 
is there anything in the logs when you try to login?
Code:
journalctl

Hi,
today I've got the same problem as mentioned before. Does anybody have an idea, how to solve? Or how to get more detailled information than "Fehler bei Authentifizierung"?
