Hi,

After each reinstall or new install OS for LXC machine, always need to install OpenSSH.

I have been testing proxmox 5 for a month and all templates have SSH installed. it depends on your OS if SSH is installed by default or not. not on the container. also SSH may be disabled by default and needs enabling, but it it usually there.

update your container list "pveam update"
install a new container based on for example:

pveam list local
...
local:vztmpl/debian-9.0-standard_9.0-2_amd64.tar.gz          188.48MB

sshd is running without any problems ...

im running command:

pveam update

pveam list local

and after create a new LXC container however ssh still not install on it.

On the "New" LXC container has just created, sshd not installed.

Im running proxmox 5-030
root@DC-218:~# pveversion
pve-manager/5.0-30/5ab26bc (running kernel: 4.10.17-2-pve)

If a template like centos has no sshd ... debian has !

simply follow these steps...

1) download a normal lxc / openvz template
2) create an lxc container with this template
3) boot it
4) open it (pct enter <id>)
5) install / modificat everything you want
6) remove all network interfaces
7) shutdown the container
8) make a backup with vzdump an select tar.gz
9) move an rename the backupfile from ...../dump/xyz.tar.gz to ..... /templates/cache/name-version.tar.gz
10) use your new template as any other

I've just delete all templetes of local storage and download a new teamplate

root@DC-218:~# pveam update
root@DC-218:~# pveam download local centos-6-default_20161207_amd64.tar.xz

and start install new container from NEW template

however nothing change on lxc container

That's helpful, I will try now

Gerhard's way works fine and with any template.

You can also try to use dab to build your own debian-based templates with predefined software, settings and so on. Also nice.

I want to use your method but I I'm not sure I understood this step right, "remove all network interfaces".

Are there any other files I need to delete?

rm /etc/sysconfig/network
rm /etc/hostname
rm /etc/hosts
rm /etc/resolv.conf
rm /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*
