I was curious to know if Proxmox had a built-in method of doing password expiry for user accounts that are not `root`? I was hoping to make it so the password would expire every 90 days, similar to the `chage` command. I am pretty sure if you use PAM authentication instead of PVE Authentication...

I'm new to proxmox, and new to enterprise hypervisors in general. Running 8.3.2 I'm hoping this is a very basic question, and I've just somehow missed the answer in the documentation. We have dedicated SAN units that share out storage. I can see, and use the assigned LUN from the SAN in...

I have a lot of questions about this. I don't know if this is in the documentation anywhere. I have a section set out for datastore use, but it hasn't been working. This is the current storage I have setup for this server and the highlighted one is what I am trying to use for the datastore...

I am trying to get VLANs setup. I made another section for it the way I knew how with just auto eno4.10 and configured the IP under that one, but that didn't work.

Hello I ran into any issue when. When creating a LXC with a static IP it is unable to connect to the internet, but is able to ping google. Then when I switch it to DHCP it is able to connect to the internet. I had used just containers before and the issue didn't occur previously. But once I...

Hi all, Does Proxmox currently have a way to handle secrets in configuration files or VMs/LXCs? I am leveraging Terraform to deploy VMs using cloud-init templates. As part of my configuration, I use additional cloud-init settings to customize and configure virtual machines during deployment...

Hi, By enabling cluster firewall (we have one node), we can't do asymmetric bgp routing in a VM, since Proxmox drops the invalid packets (even when firewall is disabled for a VM) We want to have firewall enabled, but since invalid packets are only forwarded towards the bridge and not the VM...

Hi, I am currently trying to set up a notification to get information if one of our users creates a vm. Which matching type do I have to set for this? I tried to put the matching type field on qmcreate but it didn't work. Are there any other options? Thanks in advance
