Note: There is a problem with the link. I just put in the wrong URL. If you cannot open a page, go to the part where it says the URL and make sure the very first part is (without the quotes) "http:". I just forgot the colon, and rather than having to redo all the links, this is much easier.Hey guys,

My goal with this tutorial:
To show everyone the fast and easy way to make a Bukkit Minecraft server (for beginners to making servers), which will be easy to maintain, and also easy to set up.

I would create a file, or find some other good place to keep everything, I always use the Desktop and make a file called "server". Now we need to make a startup script for the server. You can download the mac version here, and the pc version here. Put whichever one that you are using into your server file. Then download the newest craftbukkit version from here. I would suggest using the recommended build, but it is really your choice. Download craftbukkit and put it into your file. Make sure to rename it "craftbukkit.jar" so that it will be recognized by the startup script. Now is the moment of truth: all you need to do is go into the file and double click on your startup script. When you run the startup script, Terminal should open, and you should see lots of text, as well as seeing a lot of other files being generated in the folder. Minimize terminal, and go into Minecraft. Click multiplayer, and make a new server entry. Put whatever you want in the name of the server, and in the IP, put in "localhost" (WITHOUT THE QUOTATION MARKS). Save that and connect to the server. You should spawn in a randomly generated world. At this point, you may stand up from wherever you are, raise your arms, sing a little song and dance your happy dance: YOU ARE NOW THE PROUD OWNER OF YOUR OWN BUKKIT SERVER! :D When you are done dancing, go back to the Terminal window, now dubbed the "CONSOLE", and type this in: "op [playername]" (no quotes) where [playername] is the name of your character. This will give you all of the permissions in the game, and let you do ANYTHING you want! Now go back into the game, and in the chat it should say something like "Console has opped [playername]" (or something like that). That means you are oped! Now lets play with the console: in console type "say [whatever-you-want-here]", press enter and go back to Minecraft. You should see your message in purple text. The only other important thing that I can think of for the console, is how to stop the server. **NEVER, EVER,EVER STOP THE SERVER IN ANY OTHER WAY THAN TYPING "stop" INTO THE CONSOLE! (or using /stop in-game)** What that means, is that you cannot "x" out of the terminal window. If you do not use a "stop" command, you face breaking the server. This happens because when you simply close the window, the processes are still running, and when you try to restart the server, it won't work, and will most likely fail to bind to the port, because technically the computer still thinks that the server is running off of that port. If you do accidentally close out of the window, don't get too scared. Try restarting the server. If it doesn't work (and says something like "can't bind to port, is there already a server running on this port?"), then "stop" the server, and reboot your computer. That should clear it. Also important to know, is that if you get a spammer, a hacker or another player you don't want on your server, then you can kick or ban them from the server. Hackers and spammers should be dealt with by the Anticheat plugin which I have listed in the suggested plugin list below, but if not, you can manually either kick (literally kick them off the server, not permanently) by using "kick [playername] [reason-for-kick]" (for example: "kick pthomasization Spamming" in the console or "/kick [playername] [reason]" in-game, or ban them (permanent, but you can undo it) with "ban" and "/ban" (for example: "ban pthomasization"). You can also temporarily ban someone with "/tempban [playername] [time]" (time is how long IN MINUTES the player will be banned for). I will make another section below with more useful commands.I would create a file, or find some other good place to keep everything, I always use the Desktop and make a file called "server".

How to find your server IP so others can connect:
Mac: Go to System preferences -> Network -> look for your ip in the window.
Windows: In command prompt, type in ipconfig and look for IPV4.
For both, the ip should look something like xx.xx.xxx.xx (with numbers of course) Example: 68.48.200.88
