How to Make a Bukkit (Plugin) Server for Windows
1. Go towww.bukkit.org
2. On the home screen there is a panel to the side of the forum. Click on the Biggest one and download the CraftBukkit software.
ForApple Users
1. Download the Craftbukkit.jar files from www.bukkit.org found on the side bar. Call it CraftBukkit.jar.
2. Open up the terminal screen found in Finder, Application, then Utilities.
3. Copy and Pate the following:
cd ~/Desktop/
mkdir BukkitServer
cd BukkitServer/
curl -O cbukk.it/craftbukkit.jar
mv craftbukkit-1.1-R3.jar CraftBukkit.jar
echo "cd ~/Desktop/BukkitServer/" >> start.command
echo "java -Xms[RAM]M -Xmx[RAM]M -jar CraftBukkit.jar" >> start.command
chmod +x start.command
open -a TextEdit start.command
The terminal screen is the command prompy for Macs. From there it should open up a Text Edit Screen. Text Edit is the Notepad for a Mac.
4. You will see [RAM] in two different locations. Replace both with the numbers 512 or 1024 or 1536 or 2560 or 3072 or 5120. These tell the server how much RAM to use. 1024 is 1 GB of RAM. This is a good amount for a small server on a good computer.
5. Drag the Craftbukkit.jar file into the new folder on your desktop created. Then double click thestart fileand your off! If it failed you entered too high a number and have to redo from step 3.
6. Go from Step 7 on above
How to Port Forward (Allow the public to access it)
Alright, the port forwarding process is perhaps the hardest part ofmaking a server but is awesome in the end! Follow these steps and make sure to PM me or comment if there is a problem.
1. Open up the computer's command prompt. Type in ipconfig. Find it by typing cmd in search.
2. Scroll up. In default gateway your ip adress should be there. It is a set of numbers like this: ***.***.****.**. This might change. The IP given is top secret so never share it. it is your INTERNAL IP address and controls your entire home network. Keep this number.
3. Open up your browser and in the browser type the number. That's all you need to type. MAKE SURE NOT TO PUT HTTP IN FRONT OF IT!
4. It SHOULD go to your routers website. If not, your going to have to go to their site and find it manually.
5. Now that your there it should have a few options. Go to "Firewall" and if it prompts a password, the default is usally password or admin. VERY IMPORTANT: The admin panel will ask for the computer to port forward it from. Select the computer you are hosting the server on.It will now show you a list of video games to port forward. Minecraft will probably not be their so click "Define Port." It will now prompt a port in two spaces. Type 25565 the port for MC in both. Don't fill in others. Gain, make sure to select it fom the list BEFORE doing this or else it with Port Forward another computer in your network, each computer has a different list.
6. Now there will be two check boxes with TDC and UCP (sorry if this isn't exactly correct.) Check TDC and hit "Add Definition". Now enter in 25565 again in both prompt boxes and then check UCP.
7. Save it and your done! No kidding, don't screw up now.
Useful Tools:
- Check your port signal! http://yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/.Make sure to replace port 80 with 25565!

5. Notice in the folder there is the CraftBukkit(Bunch of numbers).jar. Since Windows will look for that file, you must rename it CraftBukkit.
To further edit it you must right click and open with Textpad
7. Open up Run.bat this is how you open up CraftBukkit. It should start generating files in your folder and unpacking the Spawn. If it says failed bind to port you must shut down any others programs running a server. If it says something about initialization you must restart your computer. If it says it can't find the server you did not follow step 5. any other questions can be posted in the comments and I will do my best to help.
8. When your done playing around, enter into the console op
Then type "Stop" DO NOT CLOSE THE WINDOW! Always type stop.
9. Open up the Properties file. It should start with Notepad. You may change any thing you like to True or False the MOTD is what appears o the Multiplayer screen so type anything to want in there but don't make it to long.

To visit your server, type "localhost" into the IP one the machine you are running your server while it is running or type in your internal IP address if a computer is hooked to the same network the server is running on. I stress that the internal address is different from the external.

"If you see "'Java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." then you need to reinstall Java. Still get this error? Follow this guide to adding Java to your system path."
If still that does not work try changing Java 6 to 7. Then follow the guide to adding it into your system path but only after reinstalling Java.
Thanks,
