Technic modpack server questions

[Exhibitions]

I really hope this is the right place to post this, and sincerely apologize if it isn't, but I have a few questions.

 

I'm new to running a server, and had a few questions

 

Firstly, what size of server would I need for me, and 1-2 friends to play Technic together?

Secondly, where abouts would I start looking to find a server?

Thirdly, would I need a special kind of server to run a custom modpack, or will any technic server do?

 

I would greatly appreciate any assistance anyone can give me.

1) Size as in what? Are we talking tons, Inches, Amps?

2) Google is pretty safe bet

3) As long as it supports "custom jar" or modpacks you should be golden

Size as in ram, feel that should be a pretty obvious one

Anything more specific than the most used search engine?

No one able to help?

For RAM, it depends on how many mods you are going to run, but 1.5GB(1536MB) should be enough. You would just use forge to run a forge server with mods, but if you want bukkit with the forge server, then use MCPC+. For looking for a server, that's up to you and your friends...

I'm still a bit confused as to how to tell whether or not a server host will let me use a custom technic mod pack, anyone able to point me in the right direction?

You can always host your own server, in which there are tutorials on...but for server hosts, I really don't know since I host my own modpacks/servers.
