1. I am using the lastest Proxmox VE 2.1.
2. My server has two NICS with a uplink only connected into eth0.
3. My Server is a co-located server utilizing public IPv4 IPs.
4. It is not behind a firewall or any system which monitors traffic.

Via IPKVM I did a fresh install of Proxmox, I put in the correct IP, Mask, Gateway, and DNS information. The install went perfectly fine with no errors.

Upon completion and rebooting the system:

1. I am unable to reach the web GUI via the browser, it just times out.
2. I am unable to ping the server.
3. I am unable to ping outside to the Internet from within the server. Tried pinging out to 4.2.2.2 and yahoo.com
4. I tried rebooting the server and restarting the network service.

IFCONFIG shows my IP information under vmbro0 which also has the same MAC address as the eth0 device.

eth0 only displays a IPv6 Scope:Link address, which I did not setup myself.

This is my first time installing proxmox, but after searching for a few hours it doesn't seem like anyone else is having the same issue as me from a fresh install with just the defaults. So far the only thing I did was install it.

Also, I know the network cable is good and the IP is good because I was running a Xen XCP server with the same network settings prior to wiping it to install proxmox.

Some additional information:
