2.0 Proxmox Users and Groups

*PAT= placeholder name 

Adding New Users
  1. Access the Proxmox GUI by entering the static IP you gave it into a web browser appending :8006 (the port) to it as well
    • The default login for Proxmox is: root
    • The password is what you set during installation

      For security reasons, change/disable the root account and remove it from the Administrator group after you've made a user account


             EXAMPLE OF THE STATIC IP BEING 10.0.0.5:8006 AND CORRECTLY GIVING THE PROXMOX LOGIN PAGE:
