I looked around and couldn't find any similar posts. My apologies if this has been asked before.
I am running a simple plex media server on a Kubuntu 15.10 machine.
Everything works fine, including remote access.
However when I activate my VPN (its included in my Broadband package) remote access stops working.
The VPN that I have setup is a simple PPTP connection.
It works fine, no problems at all except for the plex server issue.
Is there anyway, that the traffic to and from this program is routed around the VPN?
The plex website says the following about the ports it uses;
Quote:
The most important port to make sure your firewall allows is the main TCP port the Plex Media Server uses for communication:
TCP: 32400 (for access to the Plex Media Server) [required]
The following ports are also used for different services:
UDP: 1900 (for access to the Plex DLNA Server)
TCP: 3005 (for controlling Plex Home Theater via Plex Companion)
UDP: 5353 (for older Bonjour/Avahi network discovery)
TCP: 8324 (for controlling Plex for Roku via Plex Companion)
UDP: 32410, 32412, 32413, 32414 (for current GDM network discovery)
TCP: 32469 (for access to the Plex DLNA Server)

Any help in getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
