Minecraft server

[Trig]

I've thought about this in the past but...

How easy is it to setup a minecraft server?

Ideally I want something I can run on a VM, that the offspring can connect to, either from iPad/Tablet and PC..

Chances are i'll open the ports up on the router so their friends can connect as well...


Is this possible...?

And can both PC and tablet versions of Minecraft connect?

Ok, well given only one of the offspring has a PC at the mo but both have iPads, can one be setup for that they can both connect too?

Meh stuff paying for it lol
