Hello fellow minecrafters, I am poltoid and I am a new admin of a minecraft server. I simply wanna play with friends, I don't really need my server to be world known, I just want it to function properly for me and my friends; thus, after experimenting and trying out many things, I have come with multiple dilemmas that I hope you guys could help me with:
First, I am using the server exe from the actual minecraft.net website. Is it better to use craft bukkit? on that note, is it possible to have mods (not plugins) but to setup mods on my server? Or should I just stick with plugins on craft bukkit? Furthermore, people on my server can break blocks or open chests and stuff unless I op them. How could I set it so that regular players, not OP's can open chests and stuff and simply break dirt. Also, are there any extra things I could do to reduce lag? I can barely play on my server because having minecraft open and having the server.exe open makes my CPU lag maddly. Finally, do you have any final tips to a new server admin? I really appreciate the help, I hope to simply make a nice friendly server, so if you guys help me, I could tell the IP! (and hamachi)

Either PM me or e-mail me ([email protected]) and I believe I can sort out additional details.
For starters, yes, you will want CraftBukkit. Secondly, the reason you can't break blocks is there is a 25 (I think it's 25) block radius around the spawn where only OP's can modify. That is spawn protection and it is built-in to the server. Outside of that, anyone can. Third, you cannot modify the exe. Only the jar. Anything else, just ask.

So, what plugins should I pick? do you guys know of any good tutorials on how to set up a craftbukkit server? What is a white list? How do I remove spawn protection?

Is your bat file working or not, since you said I can get the .bat file to work
OMG sorry guys I mean I CANT get the .bat file to work! Woops! I've tried many of the coding plans on youtube descriptions but none of them work... and for that matter well, how do I check what java i have or what machine I have? I really want to have a bukkit server cuz mine just sucks
My .bat file currently has the following coding:
@ECHO OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
PAUSE
But I dont know if its right...
Also if it might help I use hamachi to connect
I really want this server to work!

Cool you went to my server. Anyways, what is your .bat file contents?
Um... well they were kinda in the post you quoted... but anyways i followed a tutorial for newbs on this website so I tried out this new .bat file:
@ECHO OFF
IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE:~-2%"=="64" "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1024M -jar "craftbukkit.jar"
IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE:~-2%"=="86" java -Xincgc -Xmx1024M -jar "craftbukkit.jar"
PAUSE
BUT whenever I run the .bat file instead of giving me "setting up spawn point" it gives me this crapola:
195 recipies
27 achievements
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.fusesource.jansi.internal.Kerne132
then It had a bunch of other lines of like org.bukkit.craftbukkit.libs.. BLA BLA BLA point is its not working
I'm supposed to run the .bat file right?
Oh god. Just put this in :
java -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar -o true
PAUSE
Simple. Yes, you are supposed to run it. Go download the latest craftbukkit and rename it to craftbukkit.jar. Put the bat file in the server folder. It should work. Be sure you have java xDYour .bat is just coding java now. Not coding batch.
I get the same lame old message when I open the bat file, it tells me recipes, achievement, then a bunch of browsing code and then nothing... Only vanilla servers work for me...

16 is correct. Also, use Permissions with craft bukkit if you only want certain people to break certain things.
