Simple, just add your Hamachi IP(the 5.xxx.xxx.xxx number over your name) to the 'server-ip=' line(delete the template first).

You need to be a user and be logged in to see links.

That's spawn protection. You can't destroy blocks in a certain radius from spawn. Either try to build a little farther from spawn or get your friend to set the spawn-protection value in the server.properties file to 0:

Code:

spawn-protection=0

Now that is a server map. You download the world data, put the folder in the server folder. Then change level-name in server.properties to the maps folder name.
Or just rename the folder to whatever the level-name value is.
For example, if the map folder was named "1337skillz" the line in server.properties would be

Code:

level-name=1337skillz

Same problem the previous gentleman had.
Spawn protection.
Look at my previous post for the answer.

I've got a hamachi server setup on my computer. I'm hosting the server and playing on the same computer with hamachi. i think my comp is powerful enough to do both (intel core i72600k 8gbs of ram nvidia geforce 560 etc...) I can connect to the server, but my friends cannot. they get a connection timed out error. I've already unblocked the 25565 port on both of our computers and i've typed in the ip addresses on the server.properties file, but we still get the error any suggestions?

First thing you should do is check if the server is overloaded. It should say it in the console. If it isn't then I might have to look for myself. Of course it might be because you have a slow internet connection, but then again it might be something else.

hey i got it working turns out there was a different profile for my hamachi network and i just turned that part off thanks for the help

I did everything you said to do but it tell me "can not find the path specified..." ?
What do I do?

Yeah, that can happen. When that happens, just double click "craftbukkit.jar", it will run without the console and in the background, you can't use any server commands, but if you are an operator, then it's unnecessary. This happens to some people and there's no way to fix it as of now.

THE RUN.BAT FILE CANT RUN!

Are you sure you're running Windows?

What do You mean by are you sure you're running windows?

HELLO??????

WHAT WINDOW I NEED?

Whoa, just stop spamming. What I meant was are you sure if your Operating System is Windows. In any way, just running craftbukkit.jar will work. I said that earlier, perhaps you should search the whole thread for an answer before complaining.
