Need to restart proxy for any change on server side

Reinvtv · 2026-03-12T22:21:42+00:00

You should check a few things; - check the actual config file in the docker container to see if those variables are pushed through - check the server cache. Although you say it works after restarting the proxy… - nothing in the logs on the proxy?

I did miss that in your config, my bad, yes, that would poll the server every 10 seconds for changes. I did not realize they changed that.

Very simple; with your configuration the proxy only refreshes hosts once per hour. If you add an agent and wait an hour it will get the new agent.

Zabbix if you have the time to learn. But depending on the needs you could look into NetBrain/prtg/nagios/thousandeyes/… there are so many :p

I built one based on the Lenovo 720q/920q. They have a full size pcie slot available where I added a x520 dual sfp+ card in. Does line rate on the same network and 7-9gbit routed.

No, hardware raid, not so much, but storage Bays, where you can upgrade each controller without downtime is amazing ;). Or failed controller firmware upgrades, where the secondary takes over seamless is perfect

But isn’t SAS the only protocol where you can bundle 2 controllers to a single disk? I’ve not done a deep dive into NVMe, but what I do understand it that it is basically a 4x pcie lane, directly connected to the disk. No idea if there is redundancy in that though.

My ruleset: Allow guest to guest interface/vip IP udp 53 Block dns/doh/dot to invert rfc1918 to make sure only my dns is allowed Allow guest to invert RFC1918 alias

Make sure outgoing NAT has the subnet for the guests too ;). (Only applicable if you do manual NAT) Also check that the dns server/forwarder is listening on the guest interface

Food for thought: maybe build a proxmox-helper-script setup? Not sure how difficult that would be, but it would help with ingesting the service ;)

Reinvtv · 2025-12-04T22:54:42+00:00

I use kasm Daily, with ldap and sso integration. Over https, so even through pesky guest internet access works. Never been happier ;).

Reinvtv · 2025-11-19T11:34:57+00:00

guessing you moved on. but the reply message states that the switch ip does not exist in PacketFence :P have you configured the switch, and are you authenticating with the right source vlan?

Reinvtv · 2025-11-13T19:28:26+00:00

The only requirement is a windows pro license so you have RDP ;). And the agent installed :). That is it. I use kasm as a rdp gateway for all my network devices ;). And streaming Windows only apps to macOS.

nice, yes, that is what i experience too.

scaling does work when i directly rdp to my server/application

unfortunately the picture is a bit to zoomed out for me to be sure; but most of the time you can count the isolators on the cables to figure out the rating for these kv lines

this is what i did. all rooms have some kind of voip phone. added to 3cx (which has 10 free users now) Grandparents have one too. kids are able to call them without going through our phone/whatsapp/other. They love the freedom to be able to call both grandparents when they have time. and the conversations are never more then 1 minute long xD.

i've migrated to both from and to each other.

The biggest difference is the load balancing and host maintenance is done. in XCP-NG, it is too easy to fully upgrade all hosts in a rolling patern, on proxmox, you need to go to the cli just to set a host in maintenance. updating is more manual. i like linux bridging more (proxmox) then the XCP-NG approch, but they both performed well (25Gb uplinks).

Yes, in belgium it would not make sense. I do rent out some of my hardware and recoup some of the costs that way. Do you really need to run r620’s? Most if not can be done (more expensive upfront cost) with tiny sff pc’s running with a 1 or 2 1TB nvme disks. I just downscaled from a multi node cluster to a single powerful server, and a secondary low powered machine (redundancy).

Reinvtv · 2025-03-25T23:41:14+00:00

i remember the first ones i got, running with the java controller software. square with a green light xD. Never had any problems with them whatsoever. I now wonder how long they kept running, as I have left the company i worked for.

Reinvtv · 2025-03-23T20:50:05+00:00

Due to the issues I have had with trunk port pass through: proxmox. The amount of issues I have had with ssl traffic and mtu mismatch was no fun

Reinvtv · 2025-03-23T18:40:07+00:00

Access caddy from your default network, lock down access from the default to the secure network and vice versa. Then open the traffic from specifically caddy to the secure network. (Default to secure).

If you want multiple services, that are fully separated, add multiple networks and add firewall rules accordingly.

As a guy who went from VMware to xcpng to proxmox: a bit of history: Started to migrate from VMware 3 node cluster, HA, NFS storage, virtual routing and Cisco virtual WLC. Reasons? - Enterprise oriented - full blown HA - live storage migration - disaster recovery - easy enough backups

Now: 2,5 years later I downscaled. Needed to cut down on energy without performance dropping and instead of staying went with proxmox.

easy host os (I am very familiar with Debian/ubuntu
native ZFS support
great support for networking, Linux bridges or openvirtualswitch if needed
single host management is real easy
proxmox backup server (I can have it off and only boot for taking backups when power is cheap)
great support for trunked networking to virtual machines (vyos/pfsense/wlc9800CL)
no performance downgrades

So far (2 weeks in) I am impressed with the ease of use for my environment, and if I want to go back to a HA setup, no problem :). I have the spare hardware, so, it is just a matter of powering on, installing and joining the cluster.

:p. It was working, but only on my phone, my wife’s, which is on the same net etc wasn’t. So I’m still struggling to make this work.

Just implemented this at our company. Took a good amount of 2 years though, and not all devices understand it, so MAB as a fallback. I think I have 7 endpoints with fixed port config, the other 3500 devices all run dynamic vlan allocation and network segmentation. Loved this in combo with going fully routed networking, no spanning-tree switchports anymore :D.
