One more question, If I want to stop using this Openconnect, how i stop it?
Can't Stop, Won't Stop.
I assume you just delete the App? Wahlman?
From wahlmanj:
You can just stop plexconnect by selecting stop in the expert menu via OpenConnect or stop plexconnect in webconnect. If you want to remove openconnect just delete the app. I will create a uninstall script and put it in my github on the op to remove the scripts. Not sure why you wouldn't want to autostart plexconnect automatically but to each their own, I will eventually include a removal of everything if desired including the unloading and removing the com.plex.plexconnect.bash.plist. Once I code it you can simply do this via terminal:
sudo su
## Navigate to /update/OSX
./uninstall.bash
OpenConect has been updated to guide users for an extremely easy network method to load the trailers.cer onto the aTV, no more disconnecting the atv to install via USB thanks to @baa showing me the link
Also the uninstall.bash has been implemented into the main code fork, just follow the OP to update the code & app also for complete uninstall instructions if desired. The uninstall script will remove installed scripts in /usr/bin, Webconnect if installed, unload the bash plist as well as removal of the bash plist via one simple script. There are a few more uninstall steps but they are fairly easy to perform by following the readme.txt in the OP link.
You are doing nothing wrong, just install the app on post 1 and you should be set ;)
If you want webconnect just follow the rest of the readme.
I am having trouble with the sudoers file.. would it be possible for someone with a mac to post the exact steps when editing it? I am not sure where to past those lines. In addition, I cannot get the page to load when visiting the location mentioned in the instructions.
There is an example pic here:
http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/84307-launchctl-and-applescript-methods-for-plexconnect-on-mavericks-osx/
Just replace the user name with _www and follow the readme in the OP to paste in the proper remaining code.
When i visit webconnect locally I enter this for my local ip on any browser on any device:
http://192.168.1.101:1234/cgi-bin/bash.cgi
When I visit webconnect remotely after opening up port 1234 on my router pointed at my plexconnect host I enter this on any browser on any device anywhere I have a internet connection since I also have a freedns setup so I dont need to remember my wanip or if it changes since its a dynamic ip from my isp:
http://My_choosen_dyndns.com:1234/cgi-bin/bash.cgi
Or if you know your wanip:
http://123.456.789:1234/cgi-bin/bash.cgi
hello..

i am using the Service "new terminal at folder" by clicking on the OSX subfolder in Update folder.

The problem is all these faces with tongue sticking out. Therefore permission is denied upon the silliness.
Haha jk. I’ll tell Wahlman to get on it.
Thx;)
You might need to use sudo because of the parent directory permissions
Do “sudo mkdir -p /update/OSX” without the "
It will ask for your password.

while trying to read/understand this topic; is this "openconnect" not a whole lot of trouble (ie. overkill) for something relatively simple ?
LOL. bakman1, meet wahlman.j the “avatar of complexity”, as I once named him.
It’s really simple. Trust me!!

I have bigger fish to fry I might have just blown open addsite again…oops

Plus if you ever use webconnect you will see how easy I manage plexconnect. You could call this method not easy, I tried to make it into extremly easy to read readme.txt. If thats to tough you can always use the closed source alternative app plexify. I made this app in a few hours, webconnect in a few more after that. Sometimes you need to work a little harder in life. If the readme.txt is to hard to follow for you then don’t use it, maybe its not for you. I don’t plan on making everyone happy, it works for me and shared the process that is all. Plus I wont disappear, im here to stay. Im not directing this at anyone here espically @institute11 we have a peace treaty 
Call this app failed2connect and plexify plexifail it makes no difference to me I welcome the harassment 
If you can’t get this app to work you are not trying or you don’t understand simple command line with a simple follow readme.txt either way good luck with whatever route you choose. If you can make a better app feel free, instead of wasting time posting stuff you probably could of taught yourself unix command line in the same amount of time and had this installed. Use google its your f.r.i.e.n.d.
No that was not my point. I see you are using, bash+cgi+an app+whatnot, all to do some simple stuff.
Don't get me wrong - it is great effort! It just wouldn't be my route ;)
I have my own solution; a daemon running on my mac which checks if my plexconnect host is reachable, if yes, check if plexconnect is up, if not it (re)starts and gives me a desktop notification that it restarted. 30 lines of code.
So the only addition would be a git pull...well, I can do that manually :)
Webconnect and openconnect are independent and are optional of each other. I don’t like command line when I can just click a an app to update just my preference or just visit any browser. It’s just the simple factor for me.
with all the code you have provided you could have restarted/update/install plexconnect on the commandline until the end of days ;)
but honestly, how often in-a-normal-environment would you actually restarted/update/install plexconnect ? once it runs, it should keep running (its only purpose).
Depends do you like the new pre-play screens, latest code? Do you have multiple plexconnect hosts that you want to deploy the latest code upon? Do you update multiple remote sites? Get sick of running the sudo command and other commands to be able to run git pull when you can easily click an app or visit a website anywhere in the world on any device instead of trying to remote in or explain it to the end user? It really depends on your wants/needs. If it’s not for you don’t use it. If it is then embrace it. This is geared for basic or power users alike. Ether way people go if they take the time it’s worth the effort.
Surely of you had looked at the road map you would have noticed great things are being implemented:
