Once had a friend who was able to run a Terraria server continuously using a real server that was at home somewhere. Can you do that somehow with Minecraft. My father has (I think) a server in the basement because of work and could I somehow run a server for free?
So how do all the server rental companies (Aternos, nitrado,.): They have servers in their company on which Minecraft servers then run continuously. Can't I do this same principle privately at home and then offer it to my friends for free? How does it work?
Yes you can. Have a look at a YouTube tutorial. Should actually find something about it.
Of course it works. You install the server version of Minecraft on your server and make sure that the necessary ports are accessible on your router. For an experienced user, and your father seems to be yes, that's a matter of 20 minutes.
Oh, thank you very much I'll have a look
