Hello,
I moved my PLEX server from a Synology NAS to a PROXMOX LXC
I can join my old PLEX server from outside but not the new one.
I'm using a double NAT
I modified the rule on my internal router in order to address the PLEX Server installed on the PROXMOX environment instead of the one installed on the Synology NAS.
On my FAI BOX i put the redirection from myIPAddress:PortN° to myInternalRouter:32400
On my Internal Router :
1/ when i put the redirection from myInternalRouter:32400 to Old_PLEX_IPAddress:32400 with the Synology PLEX Server active, it works fine
-> Works fine assumes that i can use the plex server from outside my house
https://canyouseeme.org reply :
Success: I can see your service on myIPAddress on port (PortN°)​
Your ISP is not blocking port PortN°
2/ when i put the redirection from myInternalRouter:32400 to New_PLEX_IPAddress:32400 with the PROXMOX-LXC PLEX Server active, it doesn't work
-> Doesn' work assumes that i can't use the plex server from outside my house
https://canyouseeme.org reply :
Error: I could not see your service on myIPAddress on port (PortN°)​
Reason: Connection timed out​

Both PLEX servers work fine on the LAN, so i think there is no error from PLEX side
I use one or the other PLEX server, never the both together

I think i made an error in the configuration of my PROXMOX LXC but i can't find it
If someone has any idea?

Thank you in advance

That's it, my problem is now solved :D

I made a mistake

I created 2 LXCs with the same hostname and IP address. I've never started both at the same time but when I did port forwarding I used the hostname and it pointed to the wrong LXC. I should have used the Ethernet address

Well, Plex works fine now
