Im not a person who agrees with fake vouches, I would rather be a real person, and not a fake.

Doing work for vouches in return isn't being a fake user it's called growing a reputation

Well that is what I plan to do, but I don't want random people who I have not worked for, to give a random vouch, just because I asked for one.

Thing is, since you own a server people will trust you less.
In my opinion, It's because you could grief/destroy it and make them have a message like "Join play.Jordan308Craft.net" or something.

Work for Vouch (Commonly known as Vouch Copies) is basically you completing a task (job) for them, and the payment is a vouch.
So, vouch copies is not asking random people to give you a vouch.
For example,
You could give me a vouch copy for Installation of Teamspeak, which i would give you the details you need, you complete it then in return (instead of like bitcoin or paypal money) i give you a vouch for more business.

(Note: I do not need a teamspeak installation, nor help. This was an example)

Edit: This is tailored towards CentOS 5.x/6.x users - haven't used 7.x so it might work. Idk.

Alternatively users could put in a little time, save some money, and follow this simple guide I wrote in about 5 minutes.
This guide assumes that you're logged in as root, and have already allowed traffic through port 25565.
If you're not logged in as root, then add sudo in front of all the commands.


Run the following commands:
Code:
yum install java-1.8.0.-openjdk mysql-server httpd epel-release screen nano
yum install phpmyadmin
service mysqld start
mysql_secure_installation

This will guide you through setting up MySQL. It's pretty self-explanatory.
Just ensure you reload the privilege tables towards the end of the setup.

Code:
service httpd start
mkdir /home/Minecraft
cd /home/Minecraft
wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/1.8.9/minecraft_server.1.8.9.jar
nano start.sh

You could always replace the URL of the jar file if you wish to use something custom such as Spigot. Or you could directly upload it to the /home/Minecraft directory using SFTP. Just remember, if this is a clean VPS or dedicated server it shouldn't have an FTP server installed. So use SFTP instead. A good client for this is WinSCP.

In the Nano window type the following:

Code:
java -server -Xmx1024M -jar spigot.jar
./start.sh

By default this is allocating 1GB (1024MB of RAM). Simply adjust the 1024M to the amount of MB you would like.
Press CTRL+X, then press Y, and finally press ENTER (return for you yanks).

Then run the following commands:
Code:
chmod 777 *
screen -S minecraft
./start.sh

Congratulations. You now have a Minecraft server up and running!

If you wish to access PHPmyadmin for easy database administration then do the following.
Run the following command:
Code:
nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

On the first two IfModule blocks replace 127.0.0.1 on the following lines with your own home IP address:

Code:
Require ip 127.0.0.1
...
Allow from 127.0.0.1

Press CTRL+X, then press Y, and finally press ENTER (return for you yanks).

Then run the following commands:

Code:
service httpd restart

You should be able to then access PHPmyadmin by typing your servers IP address followed by /phpmyadmin. For example: 127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin in a web browser. If it says 403 - Forbidden then you dun goofed somewhere. Double check your home IP.
At the login page you can login with root as the username and the password is the one you set in the mysql_secure_installation setup.

My sysadmin skills are mediocre at best, and I'm sure there's better ways of doing this. However hopefully someone finds this useful.

If you close your SSH client and need to get back into the server console then type the following command.
Code:
screen -x minecraft
