    vnc does not work in cluster

    Hi, I have three nodes in a cluster and when I try to VNC in the other two nodes's VMs, it doesn't work. Only the host node works. From my understanding, it's something to do with ssh? Can someone give a few pointers on how and what to set to have this working properly? Thanks

    New container - password and SSH keys

    When I create a container, I have the option to inform password and/or SSH key. If I inform SSH key, it's allowed not to inform password.

    I have a very strict firewall policy that essentially boils down to, block ALL traffic from any and all servers and computers that are not essential to that host's operation or needs. This seemed fine for a while but I just realized that anything on VLAN 10 can access Proxmox via SSH, even...
