Hi!

I'm sorry, but I don't get it...

The issue with CentOS 7 is that it doesn't allow login with root into the console. So how can I access the container in order to manage it?

Thanks.
Regards.
 
Works for me, using latest Proxmox VE 6.2 and our CentOS template.
 
If your CentOS7 container (centos-7-default_20190926_amd64.tar.xz from pveam) has id 100, then you can access its console using
Code:
pct enter 114
You can then install openssh-server if that's what you prefer.
