Hi,

As a rule I try to limit the number of inbound ports to a minimum.

I use OpenVPN and all my devices can establish a secure connection to my internal network.

Is there a way I can configure Plex so that I could stream / sync content using this setup.

The IP address I get from OpenVPN is different from my internal network (internal network = 192.168.6.x, OpenVPN = 10.8.0.x).

Thanks  
Alan
