Hey guys,

So I was wondering if anyone has a spare dedicated server or computer that could host a server of mine or a game called MineCraft.

I would really appreciate it.

Thank you very much.

well i was thinking of setting my desktop up as a server (it just sits there doing nothing all day switched off)

but i have no idea how to set up the DNS, hostname, nameserver and everything
also i have a dynamic IP address

All I would need is the ip, I think dynamic is fine.
And for a port to be forwarded.
Could I ask the specs?

Nope sounds perfect to be honest.
Would it be ok to use?
Also how would the uptime be?
Oh sorry, upload speed ? :)

uptime when i get it online should be 100% unless i need to restart for some reason or my mum doesnt pay the internet bill, if i need to restart then it would be for a few mins, if its the bill then it would be a few days

i have no idea what the upload speed is

Nope, i will need to send the Servers files over then it just runs a .bat.
Could you please port forward 2 ports for me? for both TCP and UDP.
62535 and 25565

I LOVE mine craft. Well worth $13. But I don't think .5 will be enough upload tbh.

Shuttleu
09-08-2010, 09:25 AM

you will habve to let me know when the ip changes so i can give you the new one because it is a dynamic ip address

I don't know if you ever got this running, but I'm willing to run a 24/7 server if someone purchases the game for me.

Can anyone lend me money to buy this game? :(
I only have the offline version...

You don't need the game to run a server btw :)

I think he knows that. I think the game is payment for the server. ;)

An appropriate assumption ;)

Shuttleu, is this up and running; if so, would you be willing to do more? The Man, what were you planning on doing with your server?

To shuttle: Run it through no-ip so you only have to give out a domain and not a ip. And you would just have to update there domain.(Domain is free)


I run a game server; so I have most general questions answered.

Try freedns, it has more choices for domains and worked for my minecraft server

How many people are needing to connect max? You might be able to run connections using VPNs.

In addition, I have a static IP, so NO-IP will only be used if people really want it. Opens up a nice option - if a member of ours gives us a subdomain and redirects it to my IP, we can have a nice classy url :)

And yes, I'd be willing.

How 'dedicated' could your server be? If you would dedicate a host to for srl minecrafts I would front your goodies.... Lets move this chat to the already existing minecraft srl topic thread.
