I-Want-To-Control-My-Server

or just IWTCMS

Simple minecraft mod, which allows you to connect to your server and control it

---

Configuration

{
  "ip": "127.0.0.1",
  "port": 25566,
  "logLevel": "INFO",
  "useSSL": false,
  "useAuthentication": false,
  "authenticationPassword": "",
}

ip: any ip you want to connect. By default it's 127.0.0.1 (localhost)

port: any free port (DONT USE 25565). By default it's 25566

logLevel: how much logs you get in client. can be TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR. By default it's INFO

useSSL: enabling SSL for internal server, clients must connect with SSL or they can't send/receive any data. By default it's disabled(false) BUT highly recommended to enable(true) it and setup SSL connection.

useAuthentication: enabling password for clients, client can't receive/send messages from/to server before login. By default it's disabled(false) BUT highly recommended to enable(true) it password.

"authenticationPassword": password for clients, works only if useAuthentication enabled, iwtcms_login {password} to login. By default it's "" and needs change.

Clients

Now IWTCMS didn't have any official released clients, but AXCWG created fun made client written on C#

You can check IWTCMS client by AXCWG on github

 

There's also client examples written on python:

Simple example of client written on python:

Or if you have enabled SSL:

Generating SSL key

If you have enabled SSL, you should to generate SSL keys

In fact, if you have installed java (if you playing minecraft or running minecraft server, I'm pretty sure you have installed java (or you alien)) you already have installed keygen

In my case, I have installed java at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21, so keygen in my case located at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin\keytool.exe

So just locate your java, and replace YOUR_JAVA_HERE in one of the commands below, and launch it in CMD/BASH/POWERSHELL

Example

Before

& "YOUR_JAVA_HERE\bin\keytool.exe" -genkeypair -alias selfsigned -keyalg RSA -keystore keystore.jks -storepass keystorePassword -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -dname "CN=YourCommonName, OU=Test, O=YourOrganizationalUnit, L=YourCity, S=YourState, C=YourCountryCode"

After

& "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin\keytool.exe" -genkeypair -alias selfsigned -keyalg RSA -keystore keystore.jks -storepass keystorePassword -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -dname "CN=YourCommonName, OU=Test, O=YourOrganizationalUnit, L=YourCity, S=YourState, C=YourCountryCode"

Oh, I almost forgot! Don't forget to enter your data at the end of script, data must be written in file for better security.

Example

CN=John Doe 
OU=Development
O=Tech Innovations Inc
L=Springfield
S=Illinois
C=US

_{btw. Such a person does not exist}

Result

& "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin\keytool.exe" -genkeypair -alias selfsigned -keyalg RSA -keystore keystore.jks -storepass keystorePassword -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -dname "CN=John Doe, OU=Development, O=Tech Innovations Inc, L=Springfield, S=Illinois, C=US"

After keygen generates a file with the name "keystore.jks" at directory which CMD/BASH/POWERSHELL been launched, just copy this file to YOUR_SERVER/config/iwtcms/

Commands HERE

CMD, BASH

"YOUR_JAVA_HERE\bin\keytool.exe" -genkeypair -alias selfsigned -keyalg RSA -keystore keystore.jks -storepass keystorePassword -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -dname "CN=YourCommonName, OU=YourOrganizationalUnit, O=YourOrganization, L=YourCity, S=YourState, C=YourCountryCode"

POWERSHELL

& "YOUR_JAVA_HERE\bin\keytool.exe" -genkeypair -alias selfsigned -keyalg RSA -keystore keystore.jks -storepass keystorePassword -validity 365 -keysize 2048 -dname "CN=YourCommonName, OU=Test, O=YourOrganizationalUnit, L=YourCity, S=YourState, C=YourCountryCode"

Custom commands

These commands are available only through connecting to IWTCMS internal server, and didn't available from the default minecraft console.

To "execute" this command, just send it to server.

Note: All these commands start with "iwtcms_"

command	args	example usage	function	response	response type
iwtcms_ping		iwtcms_ping	Pings server, e.g. you can check is it alive	iwtcms_pong\n	text
iwtcms_login	password: hash (sha256) coded in string	iwtcms_login a591a6d40bf420404a011733cfb7b190d62c65bf0bcda32b4f8e0f1fbc8ed2a3	Logins if password enabled, if client not logged it can't receive/send messages from/to server and receives iwtcms_not_authorized\n	iwtcms_login_success\n || iwtcms_login_failed\n	text
iwtcms_shutdown		iwtcms_shutdown	Shutdown connection with this client	iwtcms_shutdown\n	text

Plans:

Idea	Ready?
Any security? Maybe password or something else, because now anyone can connect to console	✔️
Cool remote client for server, maybe site with client or just application	50%
Port to forge (Not sure)	❌
