First quick question, in the network screen of a proxmox node, what does Apply Configuration does exactly? I have tried 'systemctl restart networking' and has different effects than the Apply Configuration button (or triggering a network restart through the Proxmox API, which I am guessing it is...

No, I tried compiling the driver for linux available at the realtek webpage, and it does not solve the issue. The driver upstream is newer than the driver available at the webpage.

I think Ubuntu is being "lazy", dividing by 1000 each step instead of dividing by 1024 each step, which I find extremely odd since a computer is doing it anyways, and then rounding to one decimal only. Check the numbers: 1. 1676804096 bytes, dividing by 1000 steps, turns into 1.676... GB...

It seems the Ubuntu file GUI is calculating sizes very weirdly. One ISO has 1.676.804.096 bytes, proxmox correctly labels that as 1.56GB (dividing by 1024 for every M). But Ubuntu file GUI says that is 1.7GB. The other ISO has 517.453.824 bytes, proxmox correctly labels that as 493.48 MB, but...

When I check the sizes in the terminal, the files in my laptop and in proxmox have the same size. So it seems the problem is how the sizes are presented in the gui's. Stat gives also same Size and Blocks in both computer.

I'm not using ZFS in neither of the systems. My laptop is running Ubuntu on ext4 and Proxmox is just running the default lvm installation. I am honestly quite puzzle as to what might be happening.

Just checked the hashes, they all match. So what could be the reason why they show as different sizes between my ubuntu laptop and the proxmox machine?

I have uploaded a couple of ISO files to proxmox to use as VM. The issue is that proxmox reports different size of the ISO than the computer I used to upload the files. For example, in my computer pfSense ISO is 517.5MB, but once uploaded to Proxmox, the proxmox web interface reports the size as...

I found out what it was, it is related to this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198931 It has nothing to do with Proxmox, but hopefully Ubuntu updates the kernel soon with the new driver added to upstream, and Proxmox pulls it in, so the issues are solved.

As a Proxmox newbie, can I ask what is the point of nfs-ganesha over nfs-kernel-server now that both require a privileged container to run?

Hi I have set up Proxmox in my home server like this and I am having problems with an Ethernet adapter. My home server only has one Ethernet adapter so I am using the a tplink usb ethernet adapter with the Realtek rt8153 chipset to connect to the internet gateway. When I installed Proxmox and...

Yes, I have a non obvious password and 2FA. Thanks for the quick answer.

I will not have users, at least not users that need access to proxmox. It is my home server and, at least the proxmox part, is going to be managed by me alone. The question was going on the line if it is adviceable to be login and doing all the stuff with the root user. I guess my doubt comes...

Apologies if this has been asked before, I have searched the forum but I have not found it. I know how to create users and groups in Proxmox and asign permissions. I am wondering what is the recommended setup when it comes to users. I have only one node, my home server. Is it ok or recommended...

This worked. Thanks everybody. I am updating the diagram with the small fix of the IP address, just in case anyone checks this in the future. Also, note that at first the host will not have Internet access, so you need a VM like pfsense ready or in my case previously create a container template...

If I understand this correctly, the bridge has the proxmox host IP to indicate that the proxmox host is using that bridge. For the VM and containers you can manually asign the bridges they are using, so that is not necessary. It is a convention. Thanks for the explanation.

Agreed. Althouhg I would like to understand why the Vmbr0 bridge needs to have the IP of the Proxmox host. If anyone can answer I would be thankful. This is a home server and my house is not that big. Plus the adapter has good signal. I have used this adapter as AP before in another house and...

Ok, diagram update. @bobmc I think we both got it wrong. That bridge should have no IP, because the masquerading and firewalling should happen inside the Router Container/VM. I saw this by following a link you recommended here in the forum in another place that I read when I was trying to...

Well, what you describe was the intention. I can see I got wrong the IP of the eth1 interface, as there is where I have to set up the masquerade. In fact, I realized that the eth0 interface does not need to be only for the host, it can be just for the bridge inside the internal network. So let...

Thanks for both answers. How would one do this, having vmbr0 be both LAN and Management port? I would still like to access the host from inside the firewall. At the moment only virtual and wireless. In the future I might need to get another wired ethernet adapter to connect wired devices...
