Connection between clients and proxmox Virtual machines

[udok]

Hello, i'm starting with proxmox. Im trying it all on virtual machines.
My dubt is:
If I have a few VM on the server, How do a client (thinclient) can connect to a certain virtual machine? I use Thinlinc for connection(it has a few options).
I think it's around ldap, but not sure.
Can someone help me?
Thx.

Assuming you have windows running in the VMS, you just configure your thin client to connect via rdp.

No, I have all linux distributions. I just have a window asking me Servername, username, and password. Does proxmox has any configuration o anything for that?

Agreed. This all depends what sort of 'thin client' environment you are running. Are they totally thin as in no desktop OS onboard and just boot an embedded OS that connects to your VDI servers, or are they running full desktop OS's and just open a connection to your VM's such as VNC or RDP etc?

A quick google brings this up, which looks good:

Here is another one:

And another one:

I'm using the livecd of the first one( http://thinstation.github.io/thinstation/). And there are not much documentation.Im in the loging windows, that ask me servername username and password; it has ports, screeen, and other options.

You need to configure vnc then if your VMS are Linux.

It really depends on what your goal is. Easiest option is to configure vnc in the VM and have the thin client connect to that unless the client supports xforwarding.

This really isn't a function of proxmox, but of the OS you are running on VM and on thin client. The hypervisor doesn't mean anything in this instance.
