[Feature] More information on LXCs

[j0c00]

Describe the feature

It would be nice if more information about the LXCs were displayed on the PegaProx interface. What I'm missing is the IP address and a more detailed display of the operating system. Currently, it only shows:
Guest Operating System LXC Container
However, on the PVE and PDM interfaces the "OS Type ubuntu," are visible as well as the IP address.

Thanks in advance.

Good ask, @j0c00 — you're right, we're under-showing containers there. The OS type is the easy half: the LXC config already carries ostype, so swapping the generic "LXC Container" for the real "ubuntu/debian/…" is mostly a display change. The IP is the fiddlier half — a static net0 ip= is right there in the config, but DHCP-assigned addresses need a node-side query (pct/lxc-info), since containers have no qemu-guest-agent for us to ask like we do with VMs. I've noted both and flagged it to @MrMasterbay: the ostype bit is a quick win, the IP we want to do properly so it isn't blank for half your containers rather than ship a half-answer. No timeline, but it's a fair gap. opencollective.com/pegaprox keeps polish items like this moving up the list 🙏 — Marcus

Wired it up — on Testing now (1a5d36b). Turns out both halves are reachable after all: the OS type comes from the container config and the live IP from Proxmox's own /lxc/<vmid>/interfaces, so the VM detail now shows OS type + IP + hostname for containers instead of a bare "LXC Container". Verified against a real Ubuntu CT here — it shows Ubuntu and its 192.168.x address (loopback/docker-bridge noise filtered out). It'll land in the next release; give it a look once you're on it and shout if anything's off for your containers.
