Once you have completed the setup process, you can simply access your Plex media server again by visiting 'www.yourserverip:32400'(http://www.yourserverip:32400) in your browser. Note that you will need to use SSH Tunnel only for setting up the Plex Server.

To set up your Plex media server on Ubuntu, follow these steps:

1. Click 'Add' and then click 'Open' to connect to the server.

2. Checkmark both boxes under Port Forwarding.

3. In the left-hand tree, open 'Connection'»'SSH'»'Tunnels' and enter 8888 as the Source Port and YOURSERVERIP:32400 as the destination.

Next, you will need to set up your SSH Tunnel using Putty. To do this:

1. Launch Putty and load your saved session as you normally would for connecting to your server.

2. Request a connection to your localhost that will be redirected to your remote server.

3. Ssh YOURSERVER_IP_ADDRESS -L 8888:localhost:32400

Once you have set up your SSH Tunnel, you should now be able to access Plex via 'www.yourserverip:32400'(http://www.yourserverip:32400) as long as you are connected to the server.

In conclusion, setting up your Plex media server on Ubuntu and accessing it in your browser is a relatively simple process. By following these steps, you should be able to set up your Plex media server and access it from anywhere.
