Setting up a OpenVZ using bridge (vmbr0)


If you're setting up an OpenVZ container on Proxmox, you will also need to configure it's network interface. Luckily it's quite easy.


# vim /etc/network/interfaces


auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 10.0.0.101
        network 10.0.0.0
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 10.0.0.255
        gateway 10.0.0.1
        dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4


# /etc/init.d/networking restart

Now verify that you can ping the gateway

# ping 10.0.0.1

It should respond with something like this:

PING 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=0.890 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_req=2 ttl=64 time=0.091 ms

Switching from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop on WSL2: Solving the Missing docker-credential-desktop.exe Error

Switching from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop on WSL2: Solving the Missing docker-credential-desktop.exe Error I’ve been happily running Kamal inside WSL2 on my home Windows desktop for a while. My original setup included an older Docker Desktop installation. Recently, I wanted to replicate this environment on a different machine, but I discovered that Docker Desktop had changed their licensing terms. Technically, I’m still covered by the new licensing terms, but I decided to try Rancher Desktop instead. Installing Rancher Desktop on WSL2 Installation was straightforward. I installed Rancher Desktop, configured it to integrate with WSL2, and disabled Kubernetes (since I don’t currently need it). My plan was to continue using the Docker CLI inside WSL2 alongside Rancher Desktop for container management. The Authentication Error However, when I was in WSL and tried to authenticate (for example, with Docker Hub via docker login), I ran into this error: ``` failed to store...

Proxmox Remote administration via VNC

Image
A few times I've needed to communicate via VNC, for instance when I was changing network configuration and couldn't use SSH or when I tried out Windows. Communicating with VNC to Proxmox wasn't so easy for me as it seemed in the documentation. Basically I never really got the " /etc/inetd.conf " thing to work, but this made it work from my local machine. This blog post is an alternative to the openbsd-inetd solution In the following: 2.2.2.2 is the IP of my Proxmox host 100 is the VM-ID you picked when you created the virtual machine ======================================================================== ssh -f -L 25901:127.0.0.1:5910 root@ 2.2.2.2 'nc -l -p 5910 -c "qm vncproxy 100 "'; "/Applications/TigerVNC Viewer 1.2.0.app/Contents/MacOS/TigerVNC Viewer" localhost:25901 ======================================================================== Please note that I only got TigerVNC to work, since all the other VNCs ha...
