The solution is simple, DONT RUSH, lol. If you don't have time and you are not willing to make things properly, then please DONT open any server as it's gonna fail.
Anyway, it's up to you. Good luck tho.
L2jFrozen is what you need basically. Download it and learn how to edit stuff. You will do all that in one, two days. Don't waste money for something that is free and require small effort from your side :)
It's more like auto ss, if you want to skip the 'consume' part, simply find the Soulshot.java and remove the line responsible for the consume part. So, you will need only 1 ss as it won't be consumed anymore.

I highly doubt someone will join his server, except few friends, so it's ok. He don't need any, as no one will attack him. Else, for fun to "show him where the cancers are spending their winter time".
Show the part of IP configuration from properties/xml.
Or simply, replace it with default. You only have to edit external IP, if you want let people to connect. Do not change other configs.
If you dont feel like providing your IP configuration, why even bother creating the topic?
lol, you said you have error, I said you have wrong settings.
Full info, full answer. Partial info, partial answer.
There is bot prot - people cry, there is no bot prot - people still cry.
From my pov, bot prot is not really important and it's indeed kinda waste of money. I personally, will not use any bot protection for my server*. ^_^
