I'm trying my hand at running a server, and while it's up and running, I had my brother try it on the LAN, and he was able to connect easily, but wasn't able to do anything..

I checked the properties to make sure it was Survival and everything, even checked in game for the default. Any idea how to make it so people can actually play w/o OPing them?

Can anyone give me advice on how to fix this? I just want to run a classic survival server.

No, he moved away from the spawn, was out digging a random piece of dirt and trying to chop trees...can have him try again though.

Note: Modified/activated the whitelist and added him.

Any other thoughts on this?
