Setting up on Linux

The following guide will show you how to get BedrockConnect up and running along with a DNS server.

Install Java

To install Java 8:

Ubuntu: sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless

CentOS: sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk

Install BIND9

Download the following script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/master/scripts/install-bind.sh

Run: sudo install-bind.sh [IP]

[BCIP] - Replace with public IP of your network that players will use

(If this server is made to be accessed outside of the Linux server's network, make sure port 53 is opened)

Download and run BedrockConnect

Download the latest "BedrockConnect-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" from: https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/releases

Run: java -jar BedrockConnect-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar nodb=true

Everything should then be correctly up and running. You would then set the primary DNS on your devices to the public IP address that you have the server running on, and the secondary DNS to a well-known DNS such as 8.8.8.8.
