Desktop (XFCE, RDP)

XFCE desktop with Firefox via RDP (port 3389, private networks only). Log in as root, password: grep root_password /etc/iac/settings.env

desktop VM

Add to a guest

In the guest as root – VM (ready-made image) only:

update --add-modules desktop

Runs a normal update and installs the module on the way. On another platform the module is rejected before anything changes.

From the Proxmox node, without logging in:

ssh root@<IP> update --add-modules desktop

Choose when creating a guest

Without a dialog, on the Proxmox node:

IAC_NONINTERACTIVE=1 var_modules=auto-update,desktop \
  bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://iac.heyer.systems/<app>/vm.sh)"

var_modules replaces the app's preselection – keep auto-update in the list if you want it. Interactive: choose “advanced” in the dialog, or tick the module in the generator on the app page.

Remove

update --remove-modules desktop

Removes the module's packages, services, firewall rules and configuration again. Data stays.

Details

XFCE with Firefox, reachable via RDP (port 3389) from private networks. Log in as root. The module generates the password when it is added:

grep root_password /etc/iac/settings.env

SSH is not affected – it still accepts the key only. When the module is removed, the root password is locked again.
