Hello. Recently I had to migrate my proxmox server to a different network with an entirely different ip schema than the one that my server was connected to when I initially installed proxmox. I was able to update the proxmox servers ip address settings and connect to the admin console and all that stuff, but, you know the message that appears on the logon screen, telling you the url to go to to access the proxmox admin console? It is still displaying the old ip address. Is there some file I can modify to correct this message?
 
The "pvebanner.service" is supposed to take care of updating this information.

It relies on /etc/hosts file being correct, amongst other others. You can use "hostnamectl" with various options to ensure that the IP/hostname relationship has been updated everywhere.

You can also make a copy of the file and add "print" statements to check whether you get updated information for $nodename and $localip.

In the end, you can manually update this file "/etc/issue" which is informational only.

@bbgeek17 Ahh. I see. I forgot about the hosts file. Thanks for pointing that out. I will make the changes and close the issue if it the changes resolve the problem. Thanks.
