Hi guys!
Today I'm gonna learn you how to make a Minecraft Bukkit 1.9 Server (uhh, so long name).

Steps:

Make a new folder, the name doesn't care and the place doesn't too. (You need to find it back later though.)
Go to: http://getspigot.org/. (Note: This isn't the official website of Bukkit.)
Download either Bukkit or Spigot. Choose the version you want.
Move the file (.jar) to the folder you just made.
Double-click it.
Wait until you see a text file named eula.txt
Change eula=false, to eula=true. (I recommend reading the EULA first. https://account.mojang.com/documents/minecraft_eula)
Double-click the .jar file again.
If no more files are being created you create a new file called: start
Copy/paste this in here: java -Xmx1024M -jar <name_of_jar_file>.jar -o truePAUSE
Save it as: start.bat (the .bat is very important.)
Double click the start.bat.
And your server is running! Please note: Only you can access the server from YOUR computer.

Configuring

Open the server.properties file. Here you can configure the most things of your server. On http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Server.properties you can see what everything means.
Install plugins. I would recommend: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/ or http://mods.curse.com/bukkit-plugins/minecraft/downloads.
You move the .jar file of plugins into the plugins folder in your server folder.
Configure the plugins in their config.yml (you'll need to run your server again first)

Portforwarding

Sorry I have no time to do this now, come back in 2 or 3 days.

I would change the title to spigot server. Bukkit and Spigot are different.

This tutorial is about Bukkit. If you open the link, you can see that you can download Bukkit as well on there.
