How To Host And Configure A Minecraft Server With No-IP How to Host and Configure a Minecraft Server with No-IP. Three things are essential to begin: Minecraft Account Minecraft Server Software No-IP Account Account Minecraft Server Software No-IP Account To connect to the server and play, you'll require a Minecraft account. If you don't have an account, you can create one here. Step One: You will first need to download the Minecraft Server software package hosted here and then start the server. Step 2: Configuring and installing the Minecraft Server. Follow the instructions for your operating system by clicking on the link below. https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tutorials/Setting_up_a_server Once everything is set, proceed to Step Three. Step Three Step Three: Port Forwarding Portforward.com can assist you with port forwarding. There you can enter the make and model number of your router and the device/application/software you wish to forward. The site will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how you can properly portforward your router. After completing port forwarding, go to www.portchecktool.com to check if port 25565 is open. If it is, you will get an "Success!" message. Further assistance with port forwarding is provided in our General Port Forwarding Guide. You will need to verify that we're resolving your hostname with the correct external IP address. You can check your current IP address by, once again, visiting www.portchecktool.com from the network's location. Step Four Step Four: You will need to create a way to keep Your IP address current and not be a dynamic public (external) IP address. There are many ways to do this. First, you can download our free Dynamic Update Client. This client will need to be running all the time at the network's location. It will check your IP address every 5 minutes and if your IP has changed, it will update that change with No-IP. You can also check whether a device on your network is compatible with No-IP for Dynamic DNS updates that are integrated. No- Servertracker.Org for DynamicDNS can be found on some devices such as routers and camera systems. This will remove the need to download the Dynamic Update Client. Step Five: At this point, you should be capable of connecting to your server, and have your friends join as well. Simply provide them with the hostname and port number. For example, "hostname.domain.com:25565".
