Hi

I remember hearing, that it is difficult to setup networking on a M1 Mac mini for a Plex Server in a Docker container - is this true? What do I have to consider?

Thanks,

Rainer

I tried the other day on my iMac (although not an M1)

And did not have much success, most of the network options are not possible with Docker on the Mac’s due to the way it works.

I did manage to get it working using using bridge networking, but failed with host and macvlan networking.

I the end I had to give up, as for the server I was trying to setup I needed dlna and could not get that to work.
