There are no software dependencies, but if the host runs an outdated operating system then they might need to compile the server themselves as the buildserver compiles with a version of Glibc that is too high.

Good news! A host said that software dependencies is all good and they could support it. They are having a few issues though if anybody could help out with.
Quote:As forthe software comaptibility we shoudl be all good. I Played a bit with it but I did not find how to force it to bind to a specific IP. Free test server as well which is nice. If anybody could give a solution to this, I would appreciate it.
At the moment it's not possible to force it, because we've never really considered the use case of shared hosting. This may boost the priority of https://github.com/mc-server/MCServer/issues/1942 .

I suspect that our response is that it would be better to add the required rules through a firewall. MCServer plugins have unrestricted access to the file system and network, so strong protections need to be in place to prevent the MCServer process from accessing unauthorized locations.

Afair, so can bukkit plugins.
This change doesn't seem like too much of work, but it's worth discussing if it's the right thing to do.

Well, port and IP are needed, but that's approximately 20 settings, so we need to work out appropriate naming. All permutations of {Minecraft, WebAdmin, RCON}-{IP address, IPv4 address, IPv6 Address, Port, Portv4, Portv6}, plus whether webadmin and RCON are enabled, before we start looking at sandboxing plugins which would be necessary in an environment where it is necessary to force these settings in the server. After all, what prevents you from installing the IRC plugin, and binding that to another servers address/port?

Is it maybe possible to load MCServer with a white/blacklist of the IP's and ports it may bind?
