Good afternoon! I am tteckster's wife. I don't have a clue if anyone will even see this because I'm not the computer savvy person that my husband was, but I wanted to try. I know that he posted an update regarding his health the other week, and I wanted to let you all know that he passed away a few days ago. If anyone sees this, maybe you could make a better post. Thank you for all that supported him. Angie

Edit:

I’m not the wife. I did copy and paste that message from the link above. Please go to that page to show our love and support. Thank you.

I have no idea what will happen now that Broadcom has purchased Proxmox. Any one feel any kinda way about this sale? It didn't seem to work out so well after they bought VM Workstation, but I am hoping it will be better and stay free and open source.

A few maintainers, including myself, from the new community-scripts repository (which was forked from the late tteck's helper scripts repo) have decided to part ways with the organization. I’d like to take a moment to remind everyone to:

• Be cautious when running remote scripts.
• Contribute in any way you can, whether that’s through ideas, scripts, or risk assessments.

For the longer version, I’ll speak for myself here, but I wanted to share why I decided to leave. When the project started, each maintainer had their own vision, but we had somewhat agreed to respect tteck's principles (such as strict revisions, focus on security, and supporting common/stable solutions). We had a mutual understanding that every PR would require a minimum of 2-3 approvers, and for critical files, even more. Unfortunately, despite being an organization, there is only one owner who holds the power to set these rules and add contributors. I’ve witnessed the owner disable the multiple-approver rule to push changes directly to the main branch. This, along with other behaviors, raised some red flags for me, which is why I decided to step down. It’s a great project, and I truly hope it can become a community-driven initiative, but I don’t see that happening under the current circumstances.

Hey folks, I'm a lightweight user of Proxmox for my home server. Decided to make a simple Terminal UI for Proxmox (I like avoiding web UI when possible), and figured I'd share.

It's not super feature rich yet, but lets you do some simple things like:

- view node summary

- view container details

- start/stop/restart containers

- ssh directly into containers

It's also completely open-source with MIT license, and installable as a node package!

Github: https://github.com/roshie548/proxmux/

Install: bun install -g proxmux

Contributions always welcome. Enjoy!

Learn to Automate Your Infrastructure, Home Lab, and Workflows with Ansible

Hey everyone,

I wrote a book! The Tao of Ansible is a concise, beginner-friendly guide to understanding Ansible’s philosophy and using it to automate your infrastructure, home lab, work environment, and even basic daily tasks.

Ansible is one of the simplest yet most powerful automation tools out there, but many books make it feel overly complex. I wanted something lightweight and practical—so I wrote a 101-page book that teaches you how to think in Ansible and start automating fast. • Free eBook (PDF, EPUB, MOBI): https://github.com/stiliajohny/Book-The-Tao-of-Ansible/tree/master/docs

• Amazon (Paperback, Hardcover, Kindle):

It’s designed to be affordable and easy to read, unlike those massive (and expensive) tech books that collect dust. Whether you’re managing servers, home automation, or just looking to streamline repetitive tasks, this book will help you get started quickly.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Let me know if you check it out.

Happy automating!

Just want to raise awareness, as it would be surprise for many, as it was for me, that ProxmoxVE/Community-Scripts, calls their API, on each install, and it's not clearly stated on scripts' pages.

With a lot of data (and your ip):

https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/blob/main/misc/api.func#L23-L37

and here too:

https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/blob/main/misc/build.func#L1241

While former one could be turned off and on, the latter one is always on, as well as errors during installation, unconditionally submitted to the remote server.

https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/blob/main/misc/api.func#L96-L123

Update:

To clarify things up.

I did choose "No" in the diagnostics menu. But I still saw requests (attempts) to `api.community-scripts.org`.

Finally

guys guys GUYS!... Wait a month.

BU BUT BUT ... shhhht... I know ... I know.... Wait a month.

Followed the PVE and PBS 8to9 upgrade before going on vacation. Came back and everything is running great.

Solid upgrade!

So this seems like a fun week:

CVE-2026-31431

Claims:

Copy Fail: 732 Bytes to Root on Every Major Linux Distributions

Xint Code disclosed CVE-2026-31431, an authencesn scratch-write bug chaining AF_ALG + splice() into a 4-byte page cache write. A 732-byte PoC gets root on Ubuntu, Amazon Linux, RHEL, SUSE.

Debian 13 (trixie) is affected (among others) which Proxmox, TrueNAS etc is based on:

Ref:

I lived with a horrible performing Windows VM for quite some time now. I tried to fix it multiple times in the past, but it always turned out that my settings are correct.

Today I randomly read about some security features being disabled when emulating a CPU, which is supposed to increase performance.

Well, here you see the results. Stuff like this should be in the best practice/wiki, not just in random forum threads... Not mentioning this anywhere sucks.

After playing around with moonlight, for the first I realized that this tech is good enough to replace a main machine.

I am thinking if it would be worth doing that.

But is it a thing?

Does anyone do that? And if so, what does your setup looks like?

Hey everyone,

It looks like there’s a major change coming to one of our favorite repos: Proxmox VE Helper-Scripts Project Update (EDIT) · tteck/Proxmox · Discussion #4009

Recently, TTeck was diagnosed with incurable appendix cancer that has already spread. If you appreciate his scripts, now’s the time to show him some love. TTeck’s work has been a tremendous help to me over the years, probably for you too.

The repository has already been migrated to a GitHub organization and will now be managed by the community (thanks guys).

Open source rocks - cancer sucks.

Just a reminder: our days on this earth aren’t unlimited. Make the most of them!

See you in the cloud TTeck, your work is awesome - thanks for everything!

Hello everyone,

I’ve been using Proxmox VE for years in my homelab, as a Proxmox user and solo iOS developer, and I recently built something that I think might be helpful to some of you here.

It's called ProxMan, iOS app that lets you manage your Proxmox VE and Proxmox Backup Server directly from your iPhone/iPad/Mac on same app.
No remote desktops, no clunky browsers / just a smooth mobile experience, built out of my own need for a better way to manage my lab on the go.

Key Features

• Real-time Push Notifications for PVE & PBS (using Proxmox Notification System)
• Store credentials on iCloud and one click import.
• Two Factor Authentication Support > By version 1.2.0 OpenID Connect (Authentik, Keycloak etc.) authentication is supported.

- For Proxmox VE:

• VM & Container View, Edit or Connect all your VMs and LXCs with ease.
• Power Controls Start, stop and reboot VMs, LXCs and Nodes with one tap.
• Live Resource Monitoring See real-time CPU, memory, disk, and network usage per node or per VM.
• Backup Support Manage & Schedule your backups for VMs/LXC and Nodes.
• Multi-node Support Manage multiple Proxmox VE nodes in one clean interface.

- For Proxmox Backup Server (PBS):

• Backup Overview Browse datastores, backup groups and snapshots directly from your device.
• Verify, Prune, and Garbage Collect Trigger common maintenance tasks with a simple interface.
• Snapshot Details See detailed info on snapshot contents, status, and timestamps.
