So thanks to Rock Star for his epic post http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/70373-plexconnect-running-on-a-qnap-nas/

 

 

Having Issues with the server shutting down as soon as it boots up

 

Sever works a treat except when you attempt to Auto run the server STOPS right after it is booted

Um there is no "Rock Star", it is just a title, like you currently have "Newbie" but there were definitely a few heroes in getting the Linux NAS stuff working.

If you look at the install guide for Linux, linked on the wiki, you should find the answer you are seeking in there.

Essentially PlexConnect is not currently coded to be able to run as a daemon by default (you can either use screen or hack the code to get it working).
