web gui logs out

[yotambib]

i am working with two proxmox nodes.
both behind a firewall and accessible with port forwarding.
i access the first with 172.16.194.4:18006 and the second with 172.16.194.4:28006.

the problem is i cant work with them concurrently. whenever i log in to one of them i am logged out of the other one and get "no ticket" error.

time is synced between the nodes and the machine i use to log in to the nodes with.
i use linux mint and mozila firefox to access the web gui.

hi,

because your browser thinks you're logged into the same host (since they have the same IP address from its perspective, and cookies are not isolated by port). that logs you out of the other one.

a possible workaround could be to use a different (sub)domains for them, that way you'd have separate cookies for both.

also if you'd cluster them, it shouldn't matter which one you're accessing since you would be able to authenticate to the other one with the same cookie then.
