Managing and maintaining a server
Servers are generally managed by administrators and operators. The administrator generally takes responsibility of the server. It may be that the server is running from their machine, or that they simply have jurisdiction over a server. Operators generally assist the administrators to moderate a server, and to prevent unruly players and griefers. Both operators and administrators have access to various commands Contents 1 Usage 1.1 Tilde notation 1.2 Target selectors 1.2.1 Target selector variables 1.2.2 Target selector arguments 1.3 Data tags 1.4 Raw JSON text 1.5 Block/item names 2 Summary of commands 3 List of commands in order to ensure the smooth running of the server. On a default server, players are assigned as operator or administrator by using the /op
command, or by editing the ops json file (ops.json) in the server directory, then restarting the server.
Local servers do not strictly require access to minecraft.net, and so can be played on an isolated local network with no internet connection. They use minecraft.net as a repository of player skins and also a database containing a list of accounts, preventing hackers and griefers from using false names while on such a server. This and other settings are modified by editing the server.properties The default server.properties file. server.properties is the file which stores all the settings for a multiplayer (Minecraft or Minecraft Classic) server. If you are going to edit server.properties it is important that you use the text file.
The server saves the level in the "world" folder every 30 seconds if chunks have been modified, by default.
