So I don't know what's causing this. I run Plex on an Apple xServe connected to a xServe RAID array in a RAID5 config. I can reboot my system and it comes up and I can look at Top in a terminal session and the Plex services start up, but here's the rub. Plex will not be available locally or on the internet until I login to the OS X Desktop via Remote Desktop.
I don't have to do anything at all, I just have to login to the desktop, I can log right back out and magically, my Plex is now available everywhere. I find it highly annoying to do this every time I reboot.
Anyone seen this and have a way to fix it?
