I followed the short tutorial here: http://forums.openmediavault.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2374 for installing Minecraft and it works well.
In order to start the minecraft server, I had to plug a keyboard and monitor into my OMV server, login as minecraft and start the server. However, if I'm making changes/mods/plugins to the server, I will need to stop and start the server on a regular basis. I don't want to keep a keyboard and monitor attached to my OMV server. Is there another way to stop and start the server remotely? I usually use putty from my desktop to access OMV, but as I understand it, I shouldn't be root when starting the minecraft server. I don't think I can use putty as adm user minecraft?
cheers
