Hey guys. I'd like to host a Minecraft server on my Hostgator account. Does anyone know how to do this? I can't seem to figure it out. Theoretically, after I upload the server files, set up a subdomain, and run the java command it should work. However, the java command doesn't work. Any thoughts?

VPS hosting plans are currently 20% off at 19.95 per month.
You can get 25% off if you use the coupon code melchizedek.
