If all i need to do is run OpenVPN and it doesn't have to be on the
server or the client then then it would be easy to set up PiVPN on a
raspberry pi and add it to my home network.

Is this the best way forwards?

Once I have my PiCorePlay at the remote location how would I make it
connect to the VPN server back at on my home network?

Hi Paul, 

PiCorePlayer is my client device not my server, from your reply I am not
sure where I should be running OpenVPN.

Hope you drop back by and clarify as I think OpenVPN would be a possible
solution, I just need to mentally map out in my brain what steps I need
to take and it would be great to talk it through with you so I can
unpick those steps :)

[slim] Is there a way to remotely access and listen to audio?

2020-03-29 Thread 1uke_


I'm not sure if what I am about to ask will make any sense  but
please do your best not to think I have gone crazy! 

INTRODUCTION

I am aware that software like 'airsonic' (https://airsonic.github.io/)
will allow you to remotely access and stream audio whereever you have a
connection to the internet.

MY QUESTION

I was wondering is it possible to access the logitech media server
remotely and have access to my music whilst I am away from home?

FURTHER THOUGHTS AND IDEAS - THAT MIGHT HELP

I am trying to figure out how this might work, my PiCorePlayer would
need to remotely connect to my home sever as would my phone which I use
to control LMS.
