Hi. How do I password-protect my Minecraft server so that only my friends can join? Thanks

Reproduction Steps

• I searched on this site
• I searched on other sites
• No explanations came up…

Minecraft doesn’t have a password system like other servers, you’d want to use Minecraft’s whitelist feature

Thanks. I can find an option to whitelist JAR hashes, but not other players. Do you know where I can whitelist them? And are they identified by username or something else…? Thanks

You should look up the documentation for the Minecraft server commands, this isn’t really anything to do with AMP itself.
