I know you just spent 7 hours installing an OS, but if this box is just going to be running a server why not use a Linux distro like CentOS or Ubuntu? Its free and a little more lightweight than Windows.

ForgeBackup. Highly configurable. I make backups every 15 minutes and keep 12 hours worth of those. Every 12 hours I create a backup and I keep 14 of the those. Every 7 days I make a backup and 4 of those are kept. So basically if something happens I have 1 month worth of backups and if I...

http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/worldborder/ I would suggest a world radius of 1 to 2 thousand blocks.

Vattic just posted some new textures, time to update: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/72747-faithful-32x32-pack-updatemods-162/page__st__8960#entry24179641

See, your sort of creating your own problem here with the case. You say you have a hard budget of $400, but you want to spend on extra on case because of space and looks. Don't think of this as getting carried away, think of this as the bare minimum for well performing FTB server.

I would suggest going with a much cheaper case and getting a better processor. Here is quick build that is around $400: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1zQgo It is much more powerful than that AMD build, and the processor has a much better upgrade path. The reason I picked out 8 gigs of memory is...

Try switching from BukkitForge to MCPC+ and instead of butchering all the mobs next time, just set the server to peaceful.

I can't promise you anything because I don't have an exact copy of that laptop, but with an SSD it should be just fine for 15 people. I would also highly recommend buying memory so the laptop has more memory and installing a Linux OS on it, they tend to be more lightweight. I would encourage...

The processor looks to be low end, the memory is a little lacking for 15 players and the low capacity hard drive means its likely quite old and slow. I think you could do 15 players if you had better upload speed. and a solid state drive. With 2 megabits per second upload, I would suggest a...

Nope, all I have to do is have backups, MCPC+, and 2 plugins. Plugins are Essentials and World Edit. If I notice someone misbehaving and they say its not a prank, they get the ban hammer. Only 1 question asked and no chance to get back on the server. I prefer server policies that limit...

Yup, didn't know anyone was still playing 1.4.7, but RPTweaks only needs to be installed server side to work. Installing it client side will fix a few minor crashes though.

BTW, I think you mean Unleashed, not Unlimited unless they added a new pack in the last half an hour that I missed.

Do you even know what "can code" means? I can write a simple hello world program in any programming language ever created but that doesn't mean I can recreate BuildCraft or Spigot. What your looking for is not a coder, its someone to fill in a damn config file. That's all you have to do to...

The first picture is not actually that far off, Dire is a sysadmin so he basically deals with servers and networking.

Its from Applied Energistics. It is used to create: http://ae-mod.info/Quantum-Entangled-Singularity/

Not to be an asshole, but with the processor like that the hardware is most likely lacking in terms of disk IO as well as processor speed. Switching OS won't fix your lag, MineOS is about as lightweight as you can find. Your two best options are trying this JVM arguements...

True, you could place a terraformer in a MystCraft age supply it with a couple hundred eu/t and get a huge dirt cube. Then use the Wand of Equal Trade to convert the outside of the cube to whatever material you want. Add some torchs and you have minimal lag mob farm + base.

In that case, I don't know why your running an economy on your server. There are so many things that can be abused for resources that its impossible to have anything be worth money. There are very few, if any items that can't be produced using bee's and/or UU.

You know even if you make it take 100 million EU for a piece of UU, people will still be swimming in the stuff? All they have to do is add more solars which gets more UU, which makes solars, and the cycle keeps repeating. If your running a pack with Gregtech, there is configs to adjust how...

Add Gregtech to Unleashed and start storing all your liquids in quantum tanks that are accessible via Thermal Expansion Tesseracts anywhere in the world. Then automate the production of fertilizer and run Forestry farms to get lots of seed oil. If my mind serves you will need a lot of...
