Hello, it's BoogyBear here, and I really need help setting up my server, it's all up, but it's offline, I asked my friend to join, but he said it says "Communication Error" and I have bukkit and all, but I have no clue how to port foward, I watch youtube videos but it's too complicated, it would help if somebody could help me.

Reply fast too.

Port forwarding is not that complicated. What IP address did you give to your friend for them to connect to?

You basically need 3 things.
1.) Your internal IP (192.16.1.x)
2.) Your external IP (go to google.com and type in "what is my ip")
3.) Access to your router to setup the forwarding (type 192.168.1.1 in your browser to access your routher)

Heres my tutorial about port forwarding where I lay out these steps
