    How to Disable Web GUI Root Login

    Just remember, you are only disabling the root user login. You don't want to try to delete the root user from the webgui users. That was a hard lesson learned.

    How to Disable Web GUI Root Login

    This thread is old but that doesn't mean this ability still doesn't exist. I have been disabling the root login for the webgui and ssh since I first started using proxmox. I think it's been a year now? You have to create an admin group, give that group admin permissions, then create a user...

    Help with storage strategy for simple home network

    @Dunuin Third option: I am curious about that. Is there any links/references regarding that? I managed to get option 1 going for me (lxc container as nfs, tftp, smb server) and it is currently mounting the root of my zfs pool. From inside the container I manage everything else (via command...

    [SOLVED] NFS server in LXC

    I got it to work. It requires a privileged container with an apparmor profile. Also, the nfs container I got working is my tftp server for my raspberry pi network boots and smb shares. Really the only thing I use nfs for is the root filesystems for the network boot devices. Compared to my...

    [SOLVED] NFS server in LXC

    I have been researching and attempting this for a while now. Maybe it's impossible but I haven't given up completely. What I want to accomplish is to create an LXC that does two things...NFS and TFTP server. I have a ZFS pool and a directory that successfully gets mounted inside my container...

    [SOLVED] Pass NIC to unprivileged CT

    I was able to pass a single NIC directly to a container. https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/configuring-nic-as-wan-input.97262/#post-420943

    [SOLVED] Combining NICs

    So after some testing I have settled on a vm bridge with the bonded ports on proxmox side. The vmbridge/bond setup still appears as 1 logical NIC to whatever vm/ct I attach them to but traffic is definitely passed through all bonded ports according to my switch lacp output. Thanks again @Dunuin

    Proxmox with OpenWrt possibly taking the WAN down continuously?

    Sounds like your network manager is the next one to talk to. And I mean the network manager for the building, not the ISP. You managed to replicate the issue with opnsense inside of proxmox so it's not proxmox or the vms. It sounds more like the AP is managed by a WLC somewhere and has...

    Proxmox with OpenWrt possibly taking the WAN down continuously?

    Check your openwrt logs when the event occurs. I have a feeling you will see openwrt is killing your wan link.

    [SOLVED] Combining NICs

    Thanks @Dunuin Now I need to decide which route to take. I might try both and I think a vm bridge with the bond on proxmox side might be the path of least resistance. Like my container adventure a while ago, I just want to ensure that all traffic going through a particular interface only...

    [SOLVED] Combining NICs

    @Dunuin Once again you got me on the right path. I now have two bonds working with LACP on my switch. Next (and hopefully last) question that should finish my prep to move vms/cts from my old server: A while back you got me sorted out on how to direct a NIC to a container so that the NIC...

    [SOLVED] Combining NICs

    Fairly new to this part of proxmox. I have a server that I received recently that I want to install proxmox onto and move my existing proxmox "home server" onto this new server. My home server only has two NICs and I dedicated 1 NIC to my ISP connection and the second NIC to my LAN connections...

    Container vs VM

    I currently have my openwrt router as a container in proxmox and it is working generally without issue. It is an unprivileged container which I believe adds a level of security between the container and the host but I read (somewhere) that if I wanted to attempt a sysupgrade of openwrt within...

    Lost

    Proxmox is meant to be run headless so you access the gui from another machine on the same network. From the gui you have access to the console of the proxmox host.

    [SOLVED] Configuring NIC as WAN input

    Thanks everyone for the replies. @Dunuin The lxc commands and the interface suggestion did the trick. Now my WAN port is direct to my openwrt container. When connecting to my existing network it only gets 1 dhcp IP which is openwrt. The proxmox host still gets to the outside world but I...

    [SOLVED] Configuring NIC as WAN input

    @vongehlens I was doing the same setup for my openwrt. vmbr0 was my proxmox host management and it was connected to the LAN side of openwrt. vmbr1 was my WAN side bridge and connected to the WAN side of openwrt. However, the WAN resulted in two dhcp IP from the "ISP". ISP being my...

    [SOLVED] Configuring NIC as WAN input

    @Dunuin I only had one IP assigned to my host for webgui access. That was on vmbr0. Like you said, with my current config I was able to access my webgui from it's "public IP" on vmbr1 as well as it's private IP on vmbr0. I am trying to kill the vmbr1 access. Thanks for the lxc commands. i...

    [SOLVED] Configuring NIC as WAN input

    I am at work as I am writing this so I don't have config files ready. Currently I have a server that I have been working on. The goal is to virtualize openwrt (succeeded) and use openwrt as my primary router/gateway for my private LAN. I have a couple of ct/vms on the LAN bridge of openwrt...

    Directory storage as actual directory

    @Dunuin Sharing a folder from within a vm image disk is what I want to avoid. Basically i want to be able to access the data whether the vm/ct is powered on or not. Especially if it is powered off. I would like to avoid data files being stored inside the virtual disk files if at all...

    Directory storage as actual directory

    @Dunuin Thanks. I was leaning toward creating a container whose purpose was to be just a server for nfs, tftp etc. Looks like I will still have to use bind mounts with that setup though.
