Server Version#: 1.40.4.8679  
Player Version#: 4.132.2  
So in the past I’ve had multiple plex servers up and running (Shield, Synology and bare bones linux servers). Recently I’ve just had one barebones linux server (Debian 12 on IP. 10.0.1.62 external port 32400). I wanted to spin up a second server on a miniPC and also have Debian 12 installed (10.0.1.63 external port 32404. I was never ever able to see the second server in the server drop down box in the left).

Everything was fine until I logged in (same account) and I got the error unauthorized. But it looks like it was trying to connect o the first server). I was not getting asked to setup the server or claim it. Eventually I did get to that part, was able to finish that but now things are actually worse. I can only see one server but even when I access them via different IP address (browser) if I make a change in one it replicates it to the other (port, name, etc…) But in the remote access part its just showing the 10.0.1.62

At this point I was going to remove and reinstall Plex on the miniPC and try again. But I just wanted to get any advice on how to get a second server running on the same network.

Thank you in advance.
