Global Spawn Point Protection

I'm creating my new Bukkit server and I have all the necessary plug-ins. I found a way to set a global spawn point "/setspawn" and I built around it. Is there anyway to protect that area from other people to prevent them from destroying blocks?

 

If you get world guard you can. You will also need world edit for it to work. Once it is installed type:
//wand
* then select the region you wish to protect
* at this point I usuually use //expand vert as this will make the region got from bedrock to the sky.
//region define <name> g:<rank you need to build here>

Hope that helped.

It is /region etc with one slash not two.

If worldguard is too much for you to set up or if you don't need that many features, you can always get essentials spawn. It automatically protects spawn point up to a certain radius that you can change.

 

You can also just add tot the server.properties: spawn-protection=RADIUS
When you restart your server bukkit will move it to the bukkit.yml and change it to spawn-radius=RADIUS
