I often run Pcp over a VPN OpenVPN does create a an interface (tun x) and this does cause Jivelite some problems I believe Jivelite searches for the LMS server and cannot find it over a VPN there is a reasonably easy fix for this. Connect the player to a local network and choose the player in Jivelite "Choose Player" also set the server in squeezelite to the server IP. When you move to the VPN connection when the VPN comes up Jivelite will connect OK I have posted a script here https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?106895-Running-picoreplayer-over-a-VPN&p=875306&viewfull=1#post875306 This will check if the Pcp is on the local network and prevent a VPN being connected and if not connect the VPN Code: -------------------- # Choose a host on the remote network testhost=192.168.5.2 -------------------- The testhost should be a host that is pingable only if on the local network OR the VPN is connected Hope this helps Jeff *Players:* SliMP3,Squeezebox3 x3,Receiver,SqueezeLite-X,PiCorePlayer x3 *Server:* LMS Version: Latest Nightly on Centos 8.0 VM on ESXi 6.5.0U3 on Dell T320 *Plugins:* AutoRescan/BBCiPlayer/PowerSave/PowerSwitchIII/Squeezecloud/Spotty/Player Groups *Remotes:* iPeng9/Orangesqueeze/PC/Jivelite/SqueezeLite-X *Music:* 522GB,1.5K albums with 25K songs by 5K artists mostly FLACs *Want a webapp ?* See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104305-Webapp-for-LMS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff07971's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49290 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111618 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
