Ep 6 | How to Setup a Homelab | How to host a Minecraft Server using LinuxGSM and PlayitGG

Hey guys, Abe here; please see the links below to help you throughout this course!

In this episode, we are going to cover how to set up ANY SteamCMD video game server using LinuxGSM and PlayitGG. Our example will show you how to set up a Minecraft server. Minecraft is a fun and easy game to set up and play with friends or family. LinuxGSM hosts the server files, and PlayitGG helps us create a tunnel outside our network for our friends to connect; this is all wrapped into our Proxmox virtual machine environment.
