BZFS Overview
A brief overview of BZFS with links to more in depth guides and tutorials elsewhere.
BZFS Use Cases:
BZFS use cases tend to fall into one of the following:
| Type | Description |
| localhost | Most commonly used for map or plugin testing, or taking screenshots or previews of a world. |
| LAN | Frequently done with the -passwd option or by setting up a private list server. |
| Private | Usually done via the -advertise option to VERIFIED to keep servers hidden from unauthenticated players or via NONE keeps it unlisted for all players.(Servers can be made visibile to specific groups however.) |
| Public | The standard servers made visibile to regular players. (Specific requirements can be made for players however.) |
Generally, the permissions and categories used for them increase as the server moves to from LocalHost to Public on the category.
LocalHost:
It is generally recommended to either use the -g option or -passwd option when running servers as localhost. This is because the -g option will cause the server to shutdown when all players leave, while the -passwd option permits using /password with the associated password set and either running the /shutdownserver command or running /superkill in combination with -g being enabled as an option (which would cause the same effect).
