Hi
I'm a noob, and looking at using this in a school. Can I set it up so the only way you can successfully login in, is if you're already in the database?

Effectively keeping it a closed community!

If you don't announce to the serverlist, then the public won't know it exists. (Set server_announce = 0 in minetest.conf of server). You can still add it to the pupils' clients by putting it in the favorites list.

You can also set a default password in minetest.conf on your server - I forget the setting name, search for password in Minetest.conf.example for one that looks right.

There is a whitelist mod.Link

Pretty simple to use

Hiding the server from the server list still applies; it's a public serverlist.
