Plugins question

[dangioffre]

Hello,

I am 100% new to running a MC server. Right now im running the mod Tekkit but I want to add some plugins. The thing is im not sure if I can add plugins in with tekkit. Can I add craftbukkit with tekkit? Not sure how any of this works. Thanks for any help.

You can't use Craftbukkit because it doesn't support Forge, which all the mods in Tekkit require. Download Cauldron for Minecraft 1.6.4 (you'll also have to download some libraries manually), and use it instead of the tekkit.jar - it's a merged Bukkit and Forge server. Start it up and it will generate a plugins folder, where you can install Bukkit plugins like a normal server.

You don't need to download the libraries manually, just read the primers on the wiki, actually follow them and you will be golden
