Server Version#: Version 1.41.5.9522
Player Version#: Plex Web Version 4.145.1
Running in docker. A while back I changed the value in Settings → Network → Custom server access URLs
Today I noticed in dns logs (pihole) that there are queries coming in for my older value. This comes whenever I load Plex in my browser.
I am not able to find out where is the old name is coming from and what setting I need to change to fix this. I have confirmed my local plex settings and settings in https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/ and none of them refer this url.

Any pointers on where this is coming from?
edit:
I have also confirmed Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Preferences.xml only has the new entry.
Anytime I load the plex app on my phone/ipad etc I see dns queries for the old fqdn and new one.
Also any way to reset this value? So it only looks at the new name?
Edit: Conversation for this is now happening over a similar post.
