Server Issue

[jetflight]

I just wanted to play with a friend and started up my server. We both wanted to join then, my friend got in and i got this wired error:

Failed to verify username! [internal error java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code:503 forURL: http://session.minecraft.net/game/checkserver.jsp...

I tried googling it and found out that its i think something with minecraft it self that i am not able to join my own server :/

Do i just have to wait or can i do something against it? Any ideas how long its gonna take? Wiered that my friend can join and i cant join my own server

Set the server to offline mode so you don't have to go through the Minecraft authentication servers.

Yep. It just means that to join, players don't have to go through authentication servers. Useful for when the Mojang servers are down.

It could be that somebody tried to connect to that ip with a webbrowser and not minecraft.
