SSH to Proxmox

[MarcinTD]

How do I give regular users access to proxmox via ssh? I wouldn't want such a user to have administrative rights. I only want these users to have access to proxmox via the console, but without elevating their privileges to root-like.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello,
Just create user accounts on the system (PAM accounts, with 'adduser'), without giving them sudo rights nor putting them in 'adm' group. They'll be able to ssh on the machine, but won't have administrative rights.

Kind regards,

So I understand that all accounts with PVE login authorization cannot have SSH access, right? All accounts except root have PVE.

So if anyone already has an account with PVE authorization, I simply have to delete it and create a new one with PAM authorization, right?

Unless I can somehow change the authorization method for current users from PVE to PAM?

So far, I have only created users from the webgui panel, not from the console.

PVE login authorization is for GUI login only, yes.
sshd is configured per default to authenticate against PAM, which means system user accounts.


Kind regards,
