I am running a server on my desktop and then running the launcher and connecting to localhost.
A Minecraft multiplayer server should accept local connections without an auth server if the multiplayer server is offline.
AFAIK "Open To LAN" creates a local server and does this (run two clients, open one to LAN and connect to localhost with the other), so I'm surprised a regular server does not.
- Disconnect your device from the internet
- Start the Minecraft Server
- On the same device, start the Minecraft Launcher
- Play Offline
- Connect to Localhost
- See "Failed to login: the authentication servers are currently down for maintenance" instead of connecting
