[super-poussin] Minecraft server

I did some searches and came across these...

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=53926&p=323874&hilit=minecraft#p323874

Would love for an easy plugin to be created so I can start/stop or run commands of some sort to host a minecraft server om the readynas.

http://www.minecraft.net/download

If you want to run the server on any other OS or without GUI it's a bit more involved (see this wiki article for a tutorial). First make sure you can use java from the command line. On Linux and Mac OS X this should already be set up but on Windows you might have to tinker with the PATH environment variable. Download and run minecraft_server.jar (621 KB) with java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui.


I would gladly pay for this :D

    Still hoping someone will do something with Minecraft on the ReadyNass... This game is just to good... xD
  • Well, I'd be interested as well. But I only do own a ReadyNAS Duo ...
    So, I assume that it might not be possible to run Minecraft on that device.
    Can anyone comment on that, please?

    The Duo (v1 at least) can't run Java, so it couldn't run Minecraft.

    (If you bought your Duo around your Oct. 2010 join date, then you certainly have a V1.)

    Oh, I see. Well, what a pitty. But anyway: CPU and memory would have been insufficient, as well (I assume).
  • Actually x86 Ultra Line is insufficent as well, to get lag free experience.
    Only x86 Pro series would have sufficent horsepower to run it with satisfying performance.
