Set
online-mode
tofalse
in the server properties file.Use a proxy that does not forward auth information (or offline client) to attempt to join BDS
BDS will disconnect the player for not being authenticated.
Disconnect log from the proxy:
2025/06/18 18:10:47 ERROR failed to dial server error="dial minecraft 127.0.0.1:39684->127.0.0.1:60000: disconnectionScreen.notAuthenticated"
I confirmed offline-mode
was set to false by attempting to enable allow-list
at the same time, which resulted in this message:
[2025-06-18 18:21:12:058 ERROR] Using an allowlist but without online authentication can be dangerous and is not allowed.
Environment
OS - Ubuntu 24.04
I would also like to note that this issue did not occur on the previous version of BDS for 1.21.80.
