Useful Notes and Tips
CLI command qm is your friend. List/manipulate VMs and such with this utility.
Enable remote VNC login ability to ProxMox guests
Edit the file - /etc/pve/local/qemu-server/<VMID>.conf
Add args: -vnc 0.0.0.0:77 to the end of the file (choose a unique number after the : for each guest)
A VNC connection to the guest is now possible by specifying the host IP address and the port chosen (“5977” in the example above).
