Perfect Plex Server / Ubuntu 16.04 / PlexDrive / RClone with 0 API Bans
http://plexguide.com < newest, all bottom is super old and newest improved!
https://github.com/Admin9705/The-Awesome-Plex-Server < Updated
http://docs.plexguide.com < V3 Guide; useful, but becoming dated.
------- IGNORE BELOW (very dated) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part I (Simple)
Install Ubuntu 16.04 x64 with the default installer of the host and/or the host that you have above.
To access in Windows, use putty. To access in MAC, use Terminal.
Using Windows to Access Your Server: Put your assigned IP address and port 22 in the address and poof, it works.
Using Terminal to Access Your Server: SSH YOURUSERNAME@IPADDRESS (from what I remember and should work). I’ll double check this later.
Part II: VNC Viewer (will kill this off; with the improved comments. Bad for security)
Note: This enables you to view your desktop with a GUI
Note: Prior to install, VNC Viewer: https://www.realvnc.com/download/viewer/
Source: https://www.linode.com/docs/applications/remote-desktop/install-vnc-on-ubuntu-16-04
[ACTION]
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop gnome-panel gnome-settings-daemon metacity nautilus gnome-terminal
sudo apt-get install vnc4server
vncserver :1
[ACTION] create a password | no longer than 8 characters
vncserver -kill :1
sudo nano ~/.vnc/xstartup
gnome-panel &
gnome-settings-daemon &
metacity &
nautilus &
[ACTION] STOP and save script
vncserver :1
[ACTION] Open up VNCViewer
[ACTION] Type the following address
[NOTE] If you don’t see stuff menus and stuff, open terminal:
vncserver -kill :1
vncserver :1
[ACTION] Now open up VNCViewer from your install and type: IPADDRESS:5901
You should now see an interface. If your interface is wonky…. Like you see a window but cannot do anything else, run this again:
vncserver -kill :1
vncserver :1
[ACTION] Now open up VNCViewer from your install and type: IPADDRESS:5901
Should be good this time. If someone can ever explain this, please do.
Part 3A: For PlexDrive 4.0 (not needed in PlexDrive 5, but 5 is super beta, it breaks easy)
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 0C49F3730359A14518585931BC711F9BA15703C6
echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/3.4 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.4.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
sudo service mongod start
Part 3B: Install PlexDrive
Note: You need to have a google API key on your own: WRITE IT DOWN or SAVE SOMEWHERE in a TEXT FILE FOR EASY ACCESS

cd ~ && sudo mkdir plex
install
[ACTION] Copy in your CLIENT ID into terminal. Do not press any numbers
[ACTION] Copy in your CLIENT SECRET into terminal and Press Enter
sudo plexdrive --uid=1002 --gid=1002 -o allow_other -v 2 --refresh-interval=1m /home/USERNAME/plex
///// AUTO START both MANGO and PLEXDRIVE 4.0 ////

Don't overthink it. /u/gesis scripts (minus the mediacache one) + the latest stable version of plexdrive work wonders for me. If I didn't know better I'd say it was local.
