Where do you have your VPN setup?
I've moved my Plex server to Truenas Scale, and I'm about to get Sonarr/Radarr/Ombi/etc setup, but first I need to get VPN going. Truenas Scale uses OpenVPN and my current VPN service is ExpressVPN (which I've been very happy with). Setting up ExpressVPN with Truenas has proven challenging because of certificate import issues. Previously I've always run ExpressVPN locally. Do you think it's a good idea just to put it on my router (PfSense) and call it a day? They do provide specific instructions to set it up on that specific router OS. I imagine I could always use a custom route to bypass it if needed (ie local sports on Fubo TV).

The Seedbox is just a remote download server I use to download from Usenet/Torrents via Sonarr/Radarr. It then moves off that server to my Plex server via Syncthing. I was able to successfully connect to my Plex server via “Connections” in the settings, but I can’t seem to get it to see what I have there. I have several instances where it downloaded the same movie four times in different formats, even though I have it set to only 1080p. Maybe I’m just missing something in the setup or a true understanding of how those apps work. I’m pretty new at this.



Is there a way to have Sonarr/Radarr download to Seedbox but monitor my local Plex server?
I use my seedbox to download and I synchronize it to my local Plex server via syncthing, however, I don't want to permanently store the data on the Plex server. I want to move it off once the download completes.

Idk. I started getting Windows notifications about McAfee which I immediately clicked and they asked me to call a number. I kind man with an Indian accent asked me to transfer $3000 which I felt was reasonable. He said thank you very much and I’m protected. I don’t see McAfee anywhere on my machine but I assume it’s just hiding so viruses can’t tell it’s there.


Looking to Fully Automate downloads From Seedbox to Plex
Hello All, Currently I'm running SFTP from my Seedbox to my Plex server (Ubuntu) via a Windows 10 machine with SMB. It's fine, though a little slow. The speed I can deal with, but I was hoping to automate this process. Are there any decent, free FTP clients out there that can periodically search my seedbox for new files and automatically upload them to my Plex server? Is there a better way than using SFTP? This is my first run at this and I'm looking for any insight you folks may have to offer. The goal here is to be able to make a request in Ombi and have it appear in my Plex without any interaction when the transfers complete. Side note: I'm so happy to have found this community. I've gained so many insights already.

Because I don’t want to have to pay a service just to watch my entire team suck.
