Linux server set port to destination

Plex Media Server NAS & Devices
1

Hello!

I searched in google but i can’t draft correctly.
I want to change x.x.x.x:32400 to x.x.x.x/plex.
The question is:
How I can change port to destination in linux?

My device: Raspberry pi 4
OS: Raspbian

Thank you!

port 32400 is fixed. This is the internal application port.

You may change the external port for remote access but that is all.

Okay I did it myself.

If anyone want to use it replace the YOUR-SERVER-IP to destination server ip :slight_smile:

Code:

sudo apt install apache2 -y
cd /var/www/html
sudo mkdir plex
cd plex
sudo nano index.html

Copy paste this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html>
          <head>
                  <title>Plex media server</title>
         </head>
          <body>
                  <iframe src="http://YOUR-SERVER-IP:32400" style="position:fixed; top:0; left:0; bottom:0; right:0; width:100%; height:100%; border:none; margin:0; padding:0; overflow:hidden; z-index:999999;">
                          Your browser doesn't support iframes
                  </iframe>
          </body>
  </html>

After than copy paste press CTRL+O (save) and CTRL+X (exit)

And you can use your plex in browser more easyer: http://YOUR-SERVER-IP/plex

Using an iFrame is actually quite a nasty approach.
If you really need to dig into hiding plex through a different handle you might want to look into the mod_proxy package that should come pre-installed (but probably disabled by default) with your Apache installation.
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy.html

Disclaimer: I haven’t used this myself and as stated by Chuck this kind of activities is definitely not supported from Plex‘ side.
There’s probably more to it than establishing a pure forward_proxy configuration… then on the other hand… your iFrame won’t be doing much more as well

WOW!
It’s nice :slight_smile:
More elegant than my solution :Đ
If I had a little free time, I’ll make an easy2use code for that.
Thank you very much!
