Woodzy, Sorry, but that applies to single threaded applications too. The application doesn't actually care what core it runs on, that's the job of the Operating System. This is why we refer to them as threads, as threads allow for parallel processing (Processing multiple jobs from the same application on different cores within the same CPU cycle.) You can quite happily run a single threaded application on 4 or 5 different cores, and they may appear to load them all. In reality though you will only ever be running a single processing task for that application per CPU cycle. However It's also not very efficient due to the nature of the CPU design, which is why most modern OS' will "try" and keep a single thread to a single core. My point is, just because your application appears to be loading multiple cores, does not make it multi-threaded. Not to mention it's often very difficult to multi-thread a game. Most attempts at it still only use 3 or 4 threads, with 1 primary thread that makes up ~90% of the processing time. For example: Thread 1 - Responsible for: Block events, lighting, entity interactions, entity movement, I/O operations (reading and saving data to/from the disk drive.) Thread 2 - Responsible for: Chat Thread 3 - Responsible for: Sound

Come again? FYI: You can get a ping response from any server version of minecraft with any client version. You just can't connect to it and play without the correct version. For example, I often use the Minecraft 1.4.5 game client to ping all my servers to check they are all working. (don't ask why I don't just write a small script to do it, this is just convenient.) And IF your problem really was that, then all you should have to do is to change your game client version to 3.1.3.

Use PermissionsEx.

[RedPower] [buildCraft] #creeper #fire Should work fine for example.

You will find that Modifyworld while more powerful and customizable than most other mods lacks finesse. What you can do with 1 line in TekkitCustomizer you invariably need 3 or 4 lines for in Modifyworld, its either that or you need to learn how to use basic regular expressions. You will find your list if ItemID's in NEI. which is actually the best place to get them. as you can search for the ID or the block name. Not to mention it will show you the blocks and ID's on your server, rather than someone elses which may have additional mods or missing mods. You can also make use of TekkitCustomizer's "/blockinfo" to check the ID of a block once it is placed in the world as many blocks have different metadata in your inventory compared to the world.

You downloaded the server version 3.1.3 and are running the client version 3.1.2 Either download the 3.1.2 server or go to Options in the Technic launcher and change your game version to 3.1.3. This is caused because the Technic team push new versions of the server and client at different times. (As I just posted in another thread not 5 seconds ago)

create a text file inside the CoreData folder, name it: blacklist.txt and add in the entries. there is an entire thread about this on these forums actually...

In-case you didn't want to click the link... (shame on you) here is a brief explanation of MAC: MAC address are a unique identifier encoded onto every single network connection device aka NIC or Network Interface Card. Your MAC is private to your network, IE: It is only used by your local network router/switch to determine which packets belong to which machine on the network. No MAC is presented to any device beyond your Network Gateway (in most cases your Router) If we used MAC addressing over the internet there would be no need for IPv4 or potentially IPv6 (Although the IPv6 addressing scheme does have a lot more usable address spaces which will be required in the "near future" to properly address every device connected to the internet. In any case... The best we can really do is ban their minecraft user name and hope that they either run out of money to continue buying accounts or run out of patience to searched for a hacked account. Untill the entire world embraces IPv6 (like it should have done nearly a decade ago) 99% of these people will be using dynamic IP's.

Coreprotect works fine for tekkit... just not for BC Pipes or most RedPower wires etc... Make sure you blacklist [buildCraft] and [RedPower] to avoid block errors. CoreProtect also uses FlatFile or MySQL although most people seem to have better results from FlatFile.

It's actually a bit more complex than that, but that's as good an explanation as any if you aren't trying to do anything with it other than understand why it needs rebooting after heavy use.

cannot reach server error is more indicitive of a server error or bad hostname/ip. than a world error. Your server should automatically generate a new clean world if you didnt copy it over properly.

I think you'll find: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/36903976/Spigot/craftbukkit-1.2.5-R4.1-MCPC-SNAPSHOT.jar is the recomended spigot build for tekkit. (Found here: http://www.spigotmc.org/threads/read-first-about-spigot.3/ )

The main reason for this is that most routers have their own RAM, which like RAM in a typical computer gets filled up. The problem is the routers firmware isn't usually equipped to handle it all properly, so when it does a garbage collection it maybe doesn't do it as efficiently as a more expensive network gateway / switch. The easy way round this is to use a old computer as the internet gateway instead of a router device provided by your ISP.

probably about 13GB of RAM, Not to mention an extremely good processor.

Sure... just you'd have to reset the map every day or so. Seems more like an event to me, rather than a map/theme. + 60players on Tekkit? thats some pretty intense server loading there.

I'm having a hard time finding anything that would suggest anything happened besides a scheduled shutdown. I would probably try clearing your mcmyadmin scheduled restarts and seeing what effect that has.

again all of the above plugins allow for that.

Can you post a pastie of your server.log?

There's no plugin that can automatically ban people for you for commiting what you deem to be "an offence" as broad as "griefing" MCBans, will ban players based on other servers banning them. If you think about it for a second, the reason will be quite apparent. How do you distinguish between a player helping another player and a player griefing another player? It may be quite easy for you when you look at the result the next day, but to a plugin, both actions include breaking and placing blocks.

Well it's the first I've heard of it... I didn't even know that the Tank Cart had an inventory....

One of my users reported today that they were able to dupe items using the "Tank Cart" apparently the process is much the same as that with the Red Matter Furnace. Only that it gives you an infinite stack. Does anyone else know anything about this?

They're not demands lol. And yes, we do appreciate that the OP is offering this for free, in fact I admire it. The posts from both myself and MrKekson are both valid concerns that any server owner would have. Not to mention we are attempting to make everyone's life as easy as possible by trying to provide options that don't involve the OP essentially owning and managing someone else's server. I run my own server project and it's basically a full time job without the pay. Trust me, I know exactly how much time is required to make and maintain a successful server, doing everything by proxy is not really an option for anyone who actually needs to think about using a dedicated server.

Disabling of holding items is quite easy, you can ModifyWorld which you should already have (came with PEX) Or you can use TekkitCustomizer or NoItem. There is supposed to be a way to restrict the number of a given item any one player can own but I think it doesn't work, it was part of TekkitRestrict.
