[Minecraft Server] Direwolf20

Ah wait, DW20 is Direwolf20. This is a modpack I can download with the Feed the Beast launcher.
My Experience with setting up a minecraft server is as follows: Download server instance from launcher, run instance.
What is DW20 and Infinity? Do we need to have admin mods on to privatise stuff?
This is why i prefer my own server with people i trust so i don't have to worry about crap like this

Yes, Infinity is another FTB(Feed The Beast) pack. Infinity is a big modpack with ALL THE THINGS. It also eats servers for breakfast.

If the server gets out of hand, I'll just ban the trouble makers.
DW20 sounds like the pack I need to go for then. Any objections?

No, there are "in-mod" chests and doors that only work for the person who placed them, eg: Thaumcraft warded doors and Thermal Expansion Strongboxes
yea that is a really big pack.... can easily kill servers!
Next year i plan on getting the Enderman server which is like R900pm

The doors can be mined around. Chests destroyed maybe?
Is there an easy to install plugin that will help with settings things private?

You can ward your whole house, or use forcefields, or kill anyone who comes close... Lotsa ways to secure your base, none of them foolproof. In modded MC you will NEVER fully secure a base, for every security a mod puts in another breaks it. DW20 and Infinity are co-op/leave my stuff alone packs, if people start PvP'ing/griefing then just ban and revert to backup
No
If you want to have plugins you may need to revert to the 1.6.4 packs as there will still be bukkit available for it.... i think though for example Thermal Expansion prevents access to chests etc other than that not sure?
Sounds good. I will install DW20 then this afternoon (if I have time). Does creeperhost do auto backups of your worlds?
Sorry for all the questions. A bit of a noob when it comes to server setups.
Yea they do. There is also a mod called AromaBackup which does the backup every 30mins - it will need to be enabled in the DW20 pack manually thought (Simple to do in Creeperhost control panel) - give me a shout if you need help with it

Yes at midnight and you can do a manual backup anytime... **** knows where on this stupid new Lite panel though!
I would suggest logging on thru CyberDuck and downloading your world so the gf doesn't have a fit when it's deleted.
Thanks man. I will have a look when I do it. Sounds simple enough. Will also update the OP with the necessary details.
yea I'm not a fan of the new control panel! balls up of note

Aroma Backup and the creeperhost backup are different, creeperhost controlled through panel, Aroma through the configs and have to access via cyberduck to manage the backups
yea i know.... but if the world gets corrupt Aroma Backup is normally the 1st point of action for me as it will be the most recent - if all else fails i will then go to CH Backup

Just letting Gezza know in case he gets confused
personally I don't use Aroma on Infinity, think I've had 2 server crashes ever in the last 6 months and couldn't reproduce either, it's incredibly stable
