So I bought a dedicated server from staminus.net just for running a Minecraft server. On Minecraft, the default port is 25565. I am wondering how one makes it so that there is no port on the IP address for the Minecraft server. The reason I don't want a port is because I want to make an A Name record from my domain to the IP, as number IP addresses are hard to remember.
Perhaps this is considered too frivolous a question, but I'm trying to set up a Minecraft server on ec2. I've been doing micro instances for now, because I want to see how well it works before committing to pay for it.
Everything needed to host the minecraft server is in a dropbox folder.
Are you using the package downloaded from the Minecraft website? Although I doubt it will be any different, try getting/installing minecraft from the AUR. (backup .minecraft first!!!) Its worth a shot, and makes launching it much more convenient

Hey I have problem with deployment minecraft server on ubuntu maas/juju.
This is another script for easily installing minecraft in Ubuntu.
That’s right folks, we’ve set up a Minecraft server for all FCM readers to play around in. Load up Minecraft, log in, click Multiplayer and enter: ronnietucker.kicks-ass.org and connect. The ‘server’ is being run on my home PC at the moment (it’s all a bit experimental) and it will probably cop out at about 15-20 [...]
I run windows 7. I Run a MineCraft server, but I can only host around 9 players before lag appears. I heard that Ubuntu can run a server with much better performance than win7. I kind of like the whole idea of Ubuntu, but I don't want to change my OS to unix or anything. Basically, my question is, does running a server (specifically and minecraft server) run easier and faster on a Ubuntu server?
Before starting I want to state that the following 2 links are already done:
How can I install Minecraft?
How do I install Java?
I have the .minecraft folder in my user folder (/home/cyrex/.minecraft). The minecraft.jar file has the executable flag. The minecraft version is the 1.2.5. I have OpenJRE AND OpenJDK installed with version 1.6 and 1.7 (1.6 default).
Info:
Ubuntu
Release 10.04
Kernel Linux 2.6.32-41-generic
GNOME 2.30.2
