Solved My New Server

[EagleArchitect]

I recently started a Tech World 2 server. I'm new to the server hosting business and creation, but I would like to know how to "program" my server.
-how to tell the server to autosave about every 15 minutes
-how to get a ranking system running in the server
-how to set the server texture pack

Anybody who can help, that would be greatly appreciated!

These are all available through plugins.
You have to get a bukkit server and use mcpc to have mods and plugins.
Im not very good at explain this though so im sure other people can and will explain better but its pretty simple.

Thank you! But I would still like help from others on my issue.

Everything there can be done with plugins as for the server texture pack the minecraft wiki for vanilla will best explain-http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Server.properties

As for the schedule most users just use controll panels to do it for them like multicraft and McMyAdmin. Bbt it can also be done with a few plugins or the most customizable and best but more technical solution would be to use python and add it to your start.sh

Ranking system- use a permissions plugin and a chat plugin. Google will find you some your first search.

Auto save falls right under the schedule info I added or a simple auto save plugin will do for thwt just as efficiently but will take up more server resources and python will be most effective in this case as well.
