Change Minecraft Server Name?
I'm setting up a minecraft server for just myself and friends. I'm using the official server (on windows) from minecraft.net
I got it all up and working but I'm curious how to change the Server Name. It looks like before 1.8.1 you could just add server-name=my server to the server.properties file, but now that doesn't seem to work. Googling didn't seem to return any helpful results, is it possible to change the server name and not just the MoTD?
Best Answer
Sorry to say but that is only changeable by the user. The more gray text can be edited in the server.properties file, but not the area you have in the red box.
