pve-parent

Just a random set of scripts I created to enable Parental Controls for Proxmox

Installation

1. Clone this repository for the latest version of the script

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/mdsketch/pve-parent

Note: All commands below must be run from the pve-parent repository root

2. Install the monitor service

cp monitor.service /etc/systemd/system/monitor.service
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now monitor.service

3. Install cron job

• Edit the crontab file

cp monitor.cron /etc/cron.d/monitor

Optional: Use Power Button to start VM

1. Disable the default power button action

sed -i 's/HandlePowerKey=poweroff/HandlePowerKey=ignore/g' /etc/systemd/logind.conf
sed -i 's/HandleSuspendKey=suspend/HandleSuspendKey=ignore/g' /etc/systemd/logind.conf
sed -i 's/HandleHibernateKey=hibernate/HandleHibernateKey=ignore/g' /etc/systemd/logind.conf

2. Install ACPI event handler

apt install acpid

3. Edit the acpi handler file and add custom action

cp powerbtn-acpi-support /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn-acpi-support
cp pwbtn.sh /etc/acpi/pwbtn.sh
