It seems like you figured it out, but this is exactly why group privileges are a thing. add both users the a group and set the group priveleges to 7, and set the group ownership

add your self to the user group of Minecraft and update the parent directory permissions to allow WRX.

example:

sudo usermod -a -G minecraft aeg
sudo chmod 0770 /home/minecraft

Then logout and log back into your shell

Don’t do chmod 777 for the love of god

How do you suggest setting up dynmap behind a firewall. I tried portforwarding still no luck

firewall-cmd --zone=external --add-forward-port=port=8080=proto=tcp:toport=xxxx

is what i tried. no luck.

you need to reload the firewall after you make a change

sudo systemctl reload firewalld

or

sudo firewall-cmd reload

I think is another way to do it

What I do for my dynnmap is I just open the port on the server then I am running haproxy so when someone hits a specific endpoint it redirects traffic to that port so I don’t have to dick with opening non-web ports on my WAN

What is haproxy?

I use it as a TCP load balancer

You don’t have to use it. You can equally use a nginx reverse proxy.

So my traffic looks like this

internet -> linode (HAProxy) -> PFsense -> VM (Haproxy) -> Services (minecraft, dynmap, nextcloud, etc)
