How do I enable “Non-Premium” mode on my server?
Go to your Minecraft server control panel.
In the Files section, locate the server.properties file and click on it.
3. Find the line that says online-mode=true and change it to online-mode=false.
Save the changes and close the file editor.
Restart the server for the changes to take effect. You can do this by clicking “Restart” in the control panel.
Once the server has restarted, online mode will be disabled, and players can join the server without a premium Minecraft account.
It’s important to note that disabling online mode makes your server more vulnerable to potential attacks, as anyone could join using the username of an OP player. Be sure to take additional security measures to protect your server, such as using security plugins and setting passwords for player access. Conclusion
