Does anyone know how to do this? any reply would be helpful.
Hamachi [logmein] is a VPN service, right?
I recommend you find a distro that has instructions on how to use Hamachi for making a server.
In the end, connecting to MineOS will just mean you having access to port 22, 8443, and 25565. Getting a server up with these ports listening is separate from the VPN component, which youâre asking about.
So as an example, you can use tutorials like this: https://mikeduckert.wordpress.com/2013/01/08/set-up-minecraft-server-with-hamachi-running-linux-mint/
Linux mint can be used (ubuntu based versions are available) which means you can also use the Ubuntu-based instructions for installing MineOS. If youâre using MineOS Turnkey (which is based on Debian), itâs likely you can use these instructions as-is.
At any rate, Hamachi doesnât need to integrate, in any way, with your MineOS installation. Both are set up separately and independently. The former makes the latter accessible, the same way as if you were local.
so I have to abandon MineOS? Or can I use turkey and still do something based with hamachi? I really like MineOS
There shouldnât be a need to abandon MineOS, but instead add the packages for Hamachi on the server. I donât use a VPN myself for my servers, but Hamachi (or any VPN service) is mutually exclusive to the host. I recommend reviewing any instructions to get this configured for Debian distros.
I dont understand most of this linux stuff, The âbuild it yourselfâ Mine OS is only returning errors and I dont know what to do
I use the current pre-built MineOS distro as it is relatively simple to install and get running. It has just enough to run and make it a headless server.
That being said, I glanced over the Hamachiâa website, and if you already have an account, you can get the .deb package and install it. They have guides to walk through that apparently (sorry didnât read through them.)
wait can i install Hamachi With MineOS Turnkey?
I donât see why not. Itâs just a matter of downloading the package and installing it with the command line. Definitely review their instructions though.
so its the hamachi site? and i didnt think you could run side programs with MineOS
MineOS (web services porting commands to the Minecraft java servers) is an application that runs on top of Turnkey Linux. Its similarly like MS Word running on top of Windows. You can run other applications, and in fact Linux is really good with multitasking and multiprocessing.
How would i gain access to the other area? because im failing to setup mineos in other linux distros
The Turnkey build is designed to be accessed through SSH (remote terminal like PuTTY). Itâs all text based, so youâd use all commands. This makes it lightweight to provide more processing power to serving instead of wasting it on GUIs.
To get started, on a client computer, install PuTTY. When that loads enter the server IP address. Log into the server using the mc account and password. (I created another account that has sudo access.)
I took a quick look over the âGetting Startedâ pdf, and they have the instructions on getting this installed (page 14, option 1.) Once installed then you issue the commands to connect to their service. But thatâs just my 5 minute review.
Iâd recommend contacting their support channel for more detailed information.
contacting Hamachis I assume, so youâre saying I can in fact add Hamachi and run it while running mineOS and not have any issues? also im using the stretch iso version
The OS wonât prevent you, MineOS shouldnât have an issue. Every VPN solution handles traffic differently. But from the standpoint of MineOS/Turnkey, this can be added. It uses the .deb packaging.
I highly recommend building a test server before adding anything to a âproductionâ environment.
I found out how to use putty, itâs essentially used as a console. do i also need an ftp or is everything going to command based?
Iâm worried some of the commands might be outdated once i find a tutorial
which i think I have: http://minecraft.codeemo.com/mineoswiki/index.php?title=Hamachi
yeah, the commands are way to limited in mine os for me to do anythingâ
What is the goal youâre trying to accomplish? Maybe knowing that can help.
do i also need an ftp or is everything going to command based?
You donât have to, but is recommend. The general consensus is to use PuTTY for console access, and Filezilla for transfers.
I want to run hamachi alongside mineOS main program and use it to allow other people to connect in
You donât need a VPN to do this, as âout of the boxâ, and once installed and running, users can connect with the external IP address. The only thing that the VPN would offer is to have the external clients connect to the internal IP address of the server and other parts of your personal network, if you so like.
If unwanted access is a concern, then you could put the server into your routerâs DMZ and that will quarantine that system from the internal network, yet allow external members to connect.
Also, there are other system securities hardening methods out there that work really well, and donât use a VPN.
I cant port forward so this is a server only friends will connect to, so security isnât the issue, allowing them to connect is
