Proxmox relies on accurate system time to manage sessions properly.

If your network blocks NTP (like mine does), here’s a quick fix to avoid web GUI session timeout.

Make sure your hardware clock is correct, run this in your pve node shell.

hwclock

Ensure system time is in sync with it:

date

Run these two commands to reset auth keys:

touch /etc/pve/authkey.pub
touch /etc/pve/authkey.pub.old

That’s it, your session issues should be resolved.
