I don't really like mcmyadmin as they like to extract money for features. Not something I fully agree with as a developer 
Bukkit is worthwhile though

SSH/putty (if on linux) or rdesktop/vnc if on windows. You can also enable the query port so you can use standard web-based game server monitors to keep an eye on uptime/connections.
http://wiki.bukkit.org/Server_Remote_Toolkit - this provides remote restart/close/console functionality and is quite handy
https://github.com/StevenLawson/BukkitTelnet - this just provides telnet functionality. I prefer it to the console provided by the above personally.

You should be able to SSH in on OSX I'd have thought? I'm not a Max expert but as it's 'nix based I assume you can remote in like that.

Ah right, can't get through to port 22? You could always set the SSH server to run on port 443/80. Once you SSH in it would be a simple matter to tunnel everything through it and then you could even play Minecraft on your work machine.

nope, nothing other than port 80.
I could try tunneling SSH, but like the idea of a fancy web page
You could still have the fancy web page...but if you tunneled you'd also have unfettered internet access to the outside world
edit:
You could also run something like the LinkTart site using BuddyPress and this plugin that some cool guy made.

Old Map
Hi
I know this has been mentioned a couple of times over the last few months since we lost access to the last “Vanilla” map, but do we have any idea yet on when or if we will have access to the old map?
I was mid-way through my long term build and at the very least I would like to copy that build locally so I can finish work on it.
I appreciate this is extra work for people but I’ve tried being really patient and just waiting for things to happen, I just wandered if there was any news yet?
I have logged into the new map several times and attempted to start a new build but I can’t get into the game the same way I did before as so much time and effort went into what I was already working on. I just want a copy of the map if nothing else.
Thanks for your time

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. When trying to view the Live Map in firefox I'm getting this:
*This address is restricted
This address uses a network port which is normally used for purposes other than Web browsing. Firefox has cancelled the request for your protection.*
but it works fine in IE, anyone know how I can get this working using FF??
edit: after a bit of time on google I've discovered I have to add something into the about:config section. If someone could let me know the port the live map uses then I can add that and see if it actually does the job, Cheers

Does this mean we will never have a portal to the old world?
Keep getting told it'll be "soon" or "next week" :/
I'm for a new map, the current one is a bit of a muddle of biomes to be honest. Admins could grab MCEDIT and make a few seeds using their own PCs, have a look at the world and pick the best.
However if we went down that route it'd be best to have a pre-filled map with set world border. Clearly people would be able to look at the map to see where they wanted to place but for all of those about to scream "but I like exploring" if we've got a 2D map, which we have you can't REALLY tell where the best places are. That's how I've done the maps on previous servers I've worked on and it always meant we had a good diverse map with interesting features, continents etc.
I'll see if I can find someone to host the 1Gb file, I could have a few years ago but given up my webspace

We will be moving any builds you start now to the new worlds so don't worry about that.
The first time we tried to bring it online it caused issues. We have a working way to do multiworld now but my plan is to allow players to go onto the test server and mark out areas for us to copy into the new worlds. Would that be acceptable to you?
