Please I need help. I am quite new to this. I have some questions. I have a server pc. I want to use this pc to create vps to sell to people, or rather for them to rent me. I already downloaded proxmox and everything, the thing is that now I don't know how to get people to connect. I mean, how does ssh work? A friend told me that I had ssh and it was fine, but I don't know how ssh is installed in each container and how it is configured. Please if someone could help me I would be grateful. I can pay something for the counseling

Sorry, but if you don't even know how to setup SSH you shouldn't sell other people VPS...
If you know nothing about SSH you also don't know how to secure it so the server doesn't get hacked.
Here in Germany you could get accused and end up in jail if you sell people VPS without knowing how to secure it.
Admins need to study that for years to be able to setup a server securely. Thats nothing you can do without knowlage to make some easy money.
Thats like selling a car without brakes or to build a house for someone without knowing anything about statics so it might collapse.

Estoy experimentando, por eso antes de ofrecer a la gente, voy a ver cómo asegurar todo el servidor, mi intención es aprender, por eso les pregunté
 
I'm experimenting, that's why before offering to people, I'm going to look at how to secure the entire server, my intention is to learn, that's why I asked them..

It takes years to learn that...are you sure you want to spend some thousands of hours to learn all of that without getting paid?
You asked how to setup SSH so you can sell it. That doesn't sound like you really want to learn all that before actually starting to sell stuff.

I understand you, but what I want to do is not something GIANT, I want to practice, learn. Obviously I'm not going to sell VPS without knowing. Also I know what SSH is, but I am confused with some terms, I am also willing to be reading 3 4 or the hours necessary to learn, okay everything has a risk, learn to drive you also have a risk of car or being shocked , but if you don't, you will never learn, that's why my idea is to go on learning and that's why the only and simple question I asked them, that I don't know how to answer, BUT I want to learn, it's how I have to do, if I have than install ssh server in each container or as is..

Yes, but if you want to learn to drive you don't start with buying a bus and train for your drivers licence by driving around dozens of people so they get killed too if you crash something.

Like I said, its thousands of hours and not 3 to 4. You need to unterstand the complete linux and every possible attack vector to be able to prevent the server from getting hacked...if you don't got years of experience thats just irresponsible.

If you are willing to learn, I would start with Proxmox Wiki. That is a good place to start on how Proxmox works before you do anything.

Remember LXCs doesn't have the same security isolation as VMs.
