Hi there,
I'm very confused with Proxmox.
Let me explain: I just bought a book about network security, where I'm meant to set up proxmox as a virtual pentest lab. Well, I installed proxmox but when I'm supposed to finish the install (i.e. go to the ip address on port 8006 through my web browser), I'm lost.
I'm running proxmox on a machine, let's call it PC2, and I'm writing this post from my main machine, let's call it PC1, which is running on windows. So, when I launch PC1's browser to ipaddress:8006 (didn't forget to type httpS), nothing worked. Duh, I was using wireless internet, so I plugged a RJ45 cable from PC1 to PC2, and still no luck.
I KNOW I'm probably doing something wrong. The book (and the wiki) just say "next step, point your browser to ipaddress:8006 and log in to the web interface for the first configuration". I'd love to, man, I just don't know how to do it. It's obviously not from PC2, but I don't know how to link PC1 to PC2 and make it work.
I feel useless right now, I thought I could handle installing it but it's getting obvious that I can't. And I guess this is one simple thing compared to the rest of the book... So yeah, guys, I might need a little help.
Please?
