OS X Minecraft server setup

Preface.

This page will describe how i run my Minecraft servers.

Howto in bullet-form.

1. Install Macports (requires Xcode Command line tools).
2. Install tmux.
3. Create a user with limited privileges for running the server.
4. Clone my BitBucket scripts for running a Minecraft server.
5. Edit configuration files so they meet the requirements for launching a vanilla Minecraft server.
6. Test if the server behaves and works as expected.

Details on the previous bullets:
