I started a small server today, and I decided that it was personally better for me to bypass the usual Bukkit setup, and use the directions right on the official Minecraft website (I assume this is 'vanilla'). I have been around to several servers in my time, and some of these have had ways for the player to teleport to the spawn, and ways to create factions. To my surprise this isn't pre-installed on a server when you start it up. I've tried researching add-ons and mods, but to no avail. I am kind of new to the whole server thing, but I did go quite in depth in my search. When I am required to say my operating system, I assume you mean my computer (Mac OS X Lion). I don't know what the requirement means when it says my server specs, but they're just standard I guess. Nothing special. Yeah my Java's up to date too.
It would be greatly appreciated if you gave me a few tips on where to look for these features and how to install them. Especially because I know some of you are God-like with servers.

Factions and teleportation aren't native to the vanilla server setup. You'll need Bukkit if you want any kind of server modification like that.
It's honestly not a lot harder to set up than the normal vanilla; just google "craftbukkit starter' and follow their instructions. It generates every required server folder and file and lets you add plugins and mods.
