The topic may sound a bit n00bish however it is something I am struggling with and would like some advice and hopefully some solutions. I am new to this system so please bear with me.
I have a dedicated server with proxmox installed. I have managed to change the ports it operates on so proxmox is not on port 80 anymore without any dramas - Still has full functionality.
I have created multiple containers with their own internal IP addresses (10.0.0.*) and I plan to separate my services. I.e. MySQL has its' own VM, web server has its' own VM, etc.
What I want to do it allow them to "speak" to each other. So my web server VM can access my MySQL and any other VM's I create can also connect to each other.

On top of this, I would like all HTTP traffic (on port 80) to go to my web server VM - not the dedicated server root.

Any guidance/help is greatly appreciated.
 
Think VMs as PM... if you can "see" ip addresses from eachother (i.e. ping ip_remote_address) successfully, then is all about configuration of the hosts like traditionally done. By the way with proxmox is pretty simple to set networking parameters, different than in other virtualization systems like vmware or vbox that you can specify multiple types of networking that can be pretty confusing at first
 
Thanks. Would you happen to have a guide on this? I am just trying to get this setup soon as I am trying to migrate a server.
