I have proxmox installed on many machines, that is exactly what I'm trying
to do, using the same "process" as the proxmox web-interface and connect
to a console of a hostnode, the thing is as I described it, that when I
run the "pure" command from my bounce-hosts cli "ssh -i ident -q -t -t
10.9.3.11 vcztl enter 101" it works fine.

When I add vncterm in that mix I can connect to it with VNC-clients but i
dont get anything else than a blank screen and a marker, so the vnc-part
of it "works" as well, but as you suggested I ran the vncterm command with
"/bin/bash" as parameter to "-c" (vncterm -rfbport 5921 -timeout 300 -c
/bin/bash) on the non-proxmox host and could connect to it with my
vnc-clients and everything but with the same results, I did only get a
blank "terminal" with the marker and no echo/output. So there is something
wrong with either the way I use vncterm or my environment on the host I'm
trying to use.

I've compared the env of both the bounce-machine and the real proxmox host
and the environment looks about the same. I will continue to dig and try
to find out how I can fix this but if anyone of you can think of something
that I should do, please let me know.
