[SOLVED] Unable to access internet on new host

[gaberrs]

Greetings,

I just installed proxmox on a second host today (pveh2), added it to a cluster, and tried to access the web on it but it's not working. I'm not sure if the fact that I added it to a cluster immediately after install proxmox is relevant.

$ curl ifcfg.me
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: ifcfg.me

$ apt update
...W: Failed to fetch http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/bookworm/InRelease  Temporary failure resolving 'ftp.us.debian.org'...

I have already compared /etc/network/interface and /etc/hosts, and the output of ip a on both machines. The second machine (pveh2) has all very similar configurations, except of course the hostname and the host IP.

Any ideas as to what I should try next?

root@pveh2:~# ip a

ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

root@pveh2:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eno1 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.4/24
        gateway 192.168.1.1
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0

By the way -- I know the host clock is out of sync on the second machine. I was hoping to connect it to the internet to fix that.

check your DNS settings:
/etc/resolv.conf

That was it, somehow nameserver was set to 127.0.0.1... maybe because I installed proxmox with no connection?

Thanks for your insanely fast reply
