I’ve had an installation running for a long time, but some network changes rendered it inaccessible from outside my network and I’ve been going through hell trying to figure out how to fix that. I could connect directly with a browser, but the problem is when you connect with Roku or similar, it ru…

on the nginx what are you filling up? i got a sub domain on a domain i already have and have it poiting to the right ip. opening up the subdomain does trigger the iOS plex app but the server is still offline on the app and browser. missing something on my end probably

@The_Wicked_One is the correct term or a typeo? “on the nginx what are you filling up?”

Sorry @RichardU , hadn’t finished up writing the message :slight_smile:

Its got to go, sub.domain.com->firewall IP-> firewall rule to forward 80,443 to Nginx IP->NGinx destination domain ( sub.domain.com )->internal IP of Plex on port 32400. [image] You should look at using DDNS and not the external Ip incase it changes.

Will give it a go after lunch and report back :slight_smile: Thanks for taking the time to reply back @Silversurfer79

@RichardU Any reason you have Websockets Support on?

will this break the PMS ability from seeing the source IP? aka does all the traffic look like it’s coming from the proxy? I have my lan subnet as allowed without auth so if that’s the case that would be very, very bad

No not at all, all the info you see in the Dashboard is fine. All this does is allow people using your plex service to connect via your url (and SSL cert) instead of Plexes. [image]

nice, I have some nginx proxies running certbot for other stuff (never seen that proxy manager that seems pretty nifty), might have to try this out you don’t have to export the p12 file and put it in the plex:network settings or anything?
