Now, you can share your server with your friends so they can come online a play. I will be creating more tutorials on Minecraft Bedrock servers later. You will have to port-forward your server for people to connect to your game from outside of your local network. To do that, you must port-forward port 13132 with both protocols.

Dear Hypixel staff,I know you guys working with Minecraft in China,But i have a question: Would there be a Bedrock server? If yes, when Will IT release.
Note: This post shows you how to install a Minecraft server on your host machine. If you prefer using Docker, see this post.
In the previous post, I showed you how to setup your own Linux based cloud server. This post will show you how to install Minecraft Bedrock on your server. I don’t know anything about Minecraft, but I knew our kids would like a way to play Minecraft with their friends without physically being in the same location, so I setup a server for them. For this tutorial, I’m using the VPS from OVHcloud that I setup in the previous post.
Steps for setting up your own Minecraft Bedrock server:
1. Bartender bot. Start a Cloud Server. Something like the $3.50/month starter VPS from OVHcloud will work fine for a few players on a vanilla (unmodified) Minecraft server.
2. Create an Xbox Live account if you don’t already have one. You will need the gamertag and xuid associated with your Xbox Live account. You can use the gamertag that is generated or customize it. The gamertag I created for this tutorial is “lukesblog”.
3. Login to your server that you setup in step 1 via Putty if you are using a Windows PC or from a terminal window if you are working from a Linux PC.
4. Create a user to run Minecraft that is separate from other users. This step is optional, but I like doing this for security reasons. Do not add the new user to the sudo group. I will create user “minecraft”. Set a separate password for this user and press enter through the name and phone numbers section.
5. Create a directory for the minecraft server
6. Install unzip
7. From your PC, open a browser and go the Minecraft Bedrock server download page. Click “I agree…” and then put your mouse pointer over the download for Ubuntu button. Right click on the download button and click “copy link address”.
Open notepad or some other text editor on your PC and paste that link to the text editor. You will use the link later.
8. From Putty, change into the directory that you made in step 5.
9. Download the server by typing “sudo wget” in front of the download link from step 7. Replace the link below with the current link that you copied.
10. Unzip the file. Replace the filename below with the current version that you just downloaded.

11. At this point, I like to change back into the root directory by typing “cd”. Note that you will have to type the full file path instead of “./” after getting out of the working directory.
12. Set server properties by editing the “server.properties” file. I changed the name of the server to “LukesBlog Server”, changed difficulty to “normal”, changed the max-players to “50”, and changed white-list to “true”. Make sure online-mode is set to “true” to make everyone be authenticated to Xbox Live. If you want to limit the people that can connect, set white-list to “true”.
Once you are finished setting the properties, save the file with “Ctrl + O” and then press enter. Exit the file by pressing “Ctrl + X”.
13. Now, edit the whitelist.json file. You will need the Xbox gamer tag for everyone you want to allow in the server. This step is not needed if you set white-list to “false” in the server.properties file.
Add the gamertags of all of the people you want to allow in the server. It has to be in this format:
Once you are finished, save the file with “Ctrl + O” and then press enter. Exit the file by pressing “Ctrl + X”.
14. Set the owner and file permissions of the Minecraft folder.
Change the owner of the minecraft_server folder and all files in it to owner “minecraft” and group “minecraft”.
Set file permissions of the minecraft_server folder and all files in it to 775. See this Chmod calculator for more explanation.
15. Add ports 19132 and 19133 to your firewall allow list. Note that these ports must match the ports listed in your server.properties file.
16. Start minecraft at server boot.
Copy the text below into the file. Change the user, group, and working directory as needed to match what you created earlier. Once you are finished, save the file with “Ctrl + O” and then press enter. Exit the file by pressing “Ctrl + X”.
17. Test to see if the server is working:
If it is working correctly, you should see this:
Set the server to start at boot with this command:
18. Now that the server is running, go ahead and join it from your Minecraft Bedrock app. I will use my phone for this.
Open your Minecraft app, and click “Play”. Then click the “Servers” tab. Then, click “Add Server”.
Anydesk bug. Enter the server name, Server IP (same IP that you login through Putty with), and port number that matches the server.properties file.
Click “Save” once you are done.
Now, join the server by opening your Minecraft app, and click “Play”. Then click the “Servers” tab. Your new server should now be listed under “More Servers” at the bottom.
19. Now, go back to Putty and add permissions for individual players. You only have to do this if you want to give some players permissions that are different from the default set by the server.properties file. The reason we are doing this last is that you need the xuid for each player that you want to set permissions for. One way to get the xuid is to look at the whitelist.json file. After each player joins for the first time, their xuid will be added to the whitelist.json file.
Good Minecraft Bedrock Servers
Open the whitelist.json file and copy the player’s xuid. It will be a string of numbers.
Exit the file without saving with “Ctrl + X”.
Now open the permission.json file and add the permissions in this format.
Once you are finished, save the file with “Ctrl + O” and then press enter. Exit the file by pressing “Ctrl + X”.
Restart Minecraft for the settings to take effect. Ilightshow.

20. Finally, reboot your cloud server, give it a few minutes, and then see if you can still join the server on your Minecraft app.
