    How Do i Enable Biomes O Plenty

    If the world's regions are already created under NORMAL type then subsequent regions will not regenerate in BIOMESOP type. I don't know if there's a way for the server to be aware of two simultaneous types. One NORMAL, one BIOMESOP. It seems by experimenting that once the world is generated...

    Plugin that logs use/placement of items?

    on the balance, mcpc+ will provide more support for plugins. I've wrestled with forge without mcpc+ and it is like bonemeal on my gray hair.

    Issues with connecting? Please report them here.

    It looks like currently, from a random Dallas, TX node and Redmond, WA node that the round-robin DNS of creepernet is giving addresses for new.creeperrepo.net as: new.creeperrepo.net. 600 IN A 50.7.98.154 <- this is "mail.awakeandsingle.com" legit? new.creeperrepo.net...

    Damnit. I press send and forget the code counts new users. I'll post a replacement for new or veteran users found in log.

    Measuring Login Durations for Statistics

    I wrote this simple perl script to measure the duration of logins of players (to find issues of aborted logins or what not) Save the code as a file called "parse". It's simple: From the shell run: perl parse -X < server.log > results.txt This measures logins that last LESS than X seconds...

    Johnleys fast and easy Server Setup Guide.

    A couple of nits to pick: In Unix (Linux) don't use spaces In the file names. Not good. Confusing when listing files. Using tar -- Usually the idiom goes like this: tar cf - <stuff to tar> > mynew.tar To compress it: tar cf - <stuff to tar> | gzip -c > mynew.tar.gz That - is...

    Stdout Spam

    If you run your server on Linux (or have Cygwin installed on windows -- recommended) then you have a plethora of commands to look at files to hunt down things. Unless you have the source to the mods, which would be easier: find <path> -iname '*.java' -print | xargs grep <expression> eg...

    im Looking For the best server host?

    Getting a McMyAdmin enterprise license key is worth it. In my accelerated decrepitude I need all the help I can get. It also allows you to easily provision rights to Moderators/Admins/etc.. when you need to look away from the server for a while.

    im Looking For the best server host?

    I'd agree with that also. The title of the thread includes "Best server host". I don't believe there is such a thing. But, I do believe that there's enough of variety in the market that you can find the server hosting style that fits your needs. Shell or no-shell Point, click and run or...

    Server hardware discussion. Any server Owner Must Read !

    He's talking about FLASH (SSD), not RAM. Your point I think was if you don't sync the data to SSD then you'll lose it. Agreed. Setup your server to auto-save often as you can bear to deal with the lost work without saving. Up to you. But that's the story using SSD or HDD or clay tablets.

    Server hardware discussion. Any server Owner Must Read !

    Your analogy for "analog" system of data storage is misleading, and a bit dated. There's cache on modern HDD controllers. Huge caches. There's multiple heads on modern HDD. The disk can read multiple blocks simultaneously. HDD geometry is an abstraction in modern HDD. I won't argue that...
