 +Upon approval, you'll want to fill this section out with more detailed background information. DO NOT JUST PROVIDE A LINK.
 +
 +Providing any links to original source material, such as from a project page, is a good idea.
 +
 +You'll want to give a general overview of what is going to be accomplished (for example, if your project is about installing a web server, do a little write-up on web servers. What is it, why do we need one, how does it work, etc.)
 +
 +=====Scope=====
 +
 +  To impliment the the minecraft server jar file through java
 +  
 +=====Attributes=====
 +State and justify the attributes you'd like to receive upon successful approval and completion of this project.
 +
 +  * files and directories: files and directories are the focus of analysis in this exercise
 +
 +=====Procedure=====
 +The actual steps taken to accomplish the project. Include images, code snippets, command-line excerpts; whatever is useful for intuitively communicating important information for accomplishing the project.
 +
 +  1. update and upgrade the system first 
 + 
 +  2. install java from the supplied site: 
 +  
 + http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml&sa=U&ei=ng2gT6acNcqItwevyo3dBA&ved=0CB8QFjAA&usg=AFQjCNGDI4y7Kw6dP4upSBTJL7mFMM4d3

 +  
 +  4. if no errors the server can be started with the the following command: java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui. 
 +=====Reflection=====
 +This was a easy setup based on the level of difficulty. Most of the time was just reading extra information on the Minecraft site.
 +Just need to buy a copy to play.
