Simple AutoBan
A lightweight server-side mod that automatically bans non-whitelisted players by both username AND IP address. Perfect for private Minecraft servers that want bulletproof access control.
Vanilla whitelist not required.
🔧 Key Features
Dual Protection: Instantly bans names + IPs of unauthorized players
Whitelist Enforcement: Only configured players can join
Persistent Bans: Uses Minecraft's native ban system
Auto-Saving Config: All changes save to config/simpleautoban.json
