Hi guys, please bear with me Total noob on PM etc,. I inherited a box, Changed the date on the server in the VM tried to change the date on proxmox VE but the option was greyd out. Next moment I cannot log into the VE via my browser, I can SSH into the box and I can login when I sit in front of the console. Only have one server with two vm's and another windows server that does not have any roles on the network.
 
Hi there, sorry, yes when I ran it earlier it showed a difference of about two hours, I didn't know how to check which timezone though
 
man I am daft, sorry was replying on my mobile earlier, it does show UTC what I meant was , I should be in Harare / Pretoria which is +2, I couldn't figure out how to check which country / city it is in
 
About two hours behind, although on the right timezone
Hi Elmar,
you can reconfigure your timezone with
Code:
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Greetings to Simbabwe - I visit it a long long time ago.
I also cant hit the box from outside, think the proxmox is using the wrong gateway
the gateway is in /etc/network/interfaces defined. (is set during boot time).
You can temporarly change the gateway with (you must delete first the existing gateway)
Code:
ip route add default via IP.ADDR.OF.GW
see "man ip".
