== Server Control ==

Basic control scripts for the server are in <tt>/srv/minecraft/commands</tt>.
* <tt>start.sh</tt> and <tt>stop.sh</tt> do as expected.
* <tt>restart.sh</tt> is currently broken, don't run it.
* <tt>backup.sh</tt> runs a clean backup.  Will be a <tt>cron</tt> job soon.


== Monitor Memory Usage ==

# SSH into the server.
# Run the <tt>top</tt> command.
# Press <tt>Shift+M</tt> to sort processes by memory.

<tt>top</tt> will update every few seconds allowing you to watch usage in real-time.

== Add User Account ==
