dear everyone,

i had my proxmox installed and it was running and i installed 1 image and it was running perfectly, then suddenly i couldnt enter my proxmox due to password incorrect and that was strange and the machine was working fine and i was able to connect to it, then i reseted my root password

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Root_Password_Reset

the password has been reseted and i can login directly to the machine but i cant ping the machine nor the image and i cant access the GUI as well, i tried the same thing from the machine itself and i cant ping anything in my network except 127.0.0.1 and not even my lan 192.168.8.9, i checked the node is running

my firewall is off

this is my network setup

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.8.9
netmask 22
bridge-ports enp1s0f0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

auto vmbr1
iface vmbr0 inet manual
bridge-ports enp1s0f1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

before the reset password everything was working fine even when i couldnt login to proxmox then i dont understand why resetting password will damage network setting?? when i check the node is there and working

looking for your reply, thanks

Hi,

resetting the password has nothing to do with the network.
Can you use ssh for connection?
if yes what are the network settings in the node?

Code:
ip -c a

ip -c a

the output of that command is:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state unknown group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

2: enp1s0f0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state

link/ether 00:30:48:ca:a6:d3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff


does that mean both lan are down?

Yes you have no nic configured.
please check your logs and your config.
Code:
cat /etc/network/interfaces
journalctl -u networking.service
 
thank you for your reply, this is the outcome of these commands

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.8.9

bridge-ports enp1s0f0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet manual
bridge-ports enp1s0f1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0

I don't know what this ekqulti network script does.
It is not part of Proxmox VE but it is the reason why the network does not work.
 
so what do you suggest should i do?
before resetting the password it was working fine then suddenly that happened
 
Have a look at what this script does?
Code:
cat /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/ekqulti
 
the hdd of that machine have backup image of the node, i installed another machine and then i plugged the hdd to it but it couldnt read it, is there a way i can move that image to a different machine ?
