Installing a Minecraft Server on Synology DSM (Legacy)

Overview

Instructions on how to install and administer a Minecraft server on a Synology DSM.

Basic instructions can be found here. The instructions at that link are a few years old and document installing on DSM 5.x. I've documented the differences in installation that I encountered below.

   Package Center > Developer Tools > Java8
