I want to create multiple users on Proxmox ve 5, my problem is that I've created them in /etc/pve/user.cfg but I can not assign them password. Somebody can help me? Thanks

Go to Datacenter -> Permissions, there add a new User permission with the path "/" for your user and the appropriate role. Make sure the "Propagate" Checkbox is enabled so that the permission propagates down to all the child elements of the permissions paths.
The Proxmox VE authentication server realm is a simple Unix-like password store. The realm is created by default, and as with Linux PAM, the only configuration items available are the ability to require two-factor authentication for users of the realm, and to set it as the default realm for login.
The web interface can be reached via https://youripaddress:8006 (default login is: root, and the password is specified during the installation process).
Create a resource pool by clicking the pool menu at the Datacenter level followed by Create, giving it a name and a description in the comment field. It's also pretty easy to log in using the Proxmox credentials.
Just create "normal" system users with
adduser Username
Then add those users to Proxmox via GUI.
In Datacenter >> Permissions >> Users >>
click adduser and enter just created usernames. It will work.
Because if you create users only in GUI of proxmox, you wont be able to assign a passwd. You must first add an user to the system and then just link it in Proxmox GUI (or /etc/pve/user.cfg) but I recommend to use the GUI way. ( Sometimes, when you edditing a config file directly, cluster can fall apart)

You can assign a password to a proxmox user with following command:
/usr/bin/pvesh set /access/password --userid youruser --password yourpassword
