They need to connect using your external IP address (use: http://www.whatsmyip.org/)
When they click Multiplayer, they need to type your IP in this format: <IP>:<PORT>

If they are cracked players, they wont be able to join because online mode: true (apparently.)

 

ho to find the port number

 

That's in the server.properties file. It is 25565 by default. You need to open that port or another if you choose to use a different one.

 

And don't forget to forward the port in the router (if behind one)

 

And there's also the whitelist.

 

...Don't forget to add Essentials and some fun plugins.

 

i can't portforward my server why not? i use port 25565. and my ip4 and named it bukkit server, then i reboot the router. what do i wrong :

 

What does it say on canyouseeme.org? Have you checked your firewall?

 

yes.firewall can cause all kinda of bad.try turrning your firewall off and see if that helps.also some routers do not allow for port forwarding

 

it say's I could not see your service on 79.141.107.246on port (25565)
Reason: Connection refused

but

but how can i turn the firewall of?
