Re: [PVE-User] Problem installing Qemu-guest-agent on Windows
Hi John, Did you also follow these (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Qemu-guest-agent#Windows), saying you need to install VirtIO drivers? PCI drivers are there: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_VirtIO_Drivers -- Adnan GPG: D433-5C63 (https://keybase.io/max13/key.asc) If you are not using GPG/PGP but want to send me an encrypted e-mail: https://encrypt.to/0xD4335C63.

Well… You would be surprised ;) It’s not « THAT » complicated, except that currently we are in a country in crisis and buying a laptop only for that is currently overkill. We had a tech machine there, but had to use it for a point of sale. > Personally I would avoid installing a full Desktop environment on the PVE > hosts No choice.

Uwe Sauter uwe.sauter.de at gmail.com wrote: > You could use > > qm terminal > > to connect to the serial console I’m not really looking for connecting a serial console, but would have liked an access to the desktop manager of a VM, as if it was possible to redirect the keyboard/video/mouse of my KVM console to an actual VM. As Yannis said, it seems to overcomplicate things. Then we will wait a budget to buy a mini-pc and install it with the desktop we want. BTW, I take advantage of the discussion about the serial port. In Congo it’s hard to find an original serial-to-usb cable to plug our PBX to one of our VMs. Prolific made an update and all our cables are not working anymore. This was the only way to easily plug our RS232 PBX to a VM. While waiting to find an original converter, is there a way to redirect a serial port (/dev/ttyS0) to a Windows VM, creating a COM port connected to the linux serial port? -- Regards, Adnan RIHAN GPG: 5675-62BA (https://keybase.io/max13/key.asc) ⇒ If you are not using GPG/PGP but want to send me an encrypted e-mail: https://encrypt.to/0x567562BA. ___ pve-user mailing list pve-user@pve.proxmox.com https://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
[PVE-User] Local interface on Promox server
Hi there, I’m using Proxmox for years on a remote server, and have recently installed it in my company (so, in the same LAN). In our server room, we have 2 servers (both Proxmox) and 2 Synology NAS, all these servers can only be managed by another client using a web browser. We don’t have any client machine in the server room, so when we fix something in the room (cables, routing, etc…), we need to go out and check the VMs on another machine outside the room, sometimes making us come back, etc… I know VMs can be controlled by command line using qemu, but is there another way to locally control the machines on the Proxmox server, except by installing a desktop manager and pointing the web browser on localhost:8006? Is it even safe to do that? We have a KVM in our bay, we can physically access the machines, is there maybe a way to physically be connected to a VM (as if we were physically connected to a Windows VM for instance)? Thanks for your help. -- Regards, Adnan RIHAN GPG: 5675-62BA (https://keybase.io/max13/key.asc) ⇒ If you are not using GPG/PGP but want to send me an encrypted e-mail: https://encrypt.to/0x567562BA. ___ pve-user mailing list pve-user@pve.proxmox.com https://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
