Starting my own dedicated server....

[cAfstA]

Hi guys...

I'm new to this forum and have seen quite a few handy stuff here.

What I need help with is starting/hosting a dedicated server. I am a total noob and can't always grasp what is being explained.
Is there someone that can assist me step by step how to get started or maybe point me to a link which would help me.
Please also take note that I don't always understand the jargon used so need to be explained in plain english

Your guys assistance is much appreciated

Regards

Hi guys..

Listen I know I might sound silly but I really need help setting up a server from the beginning.
Lemme give a brief explanation.

I belong to a wireless group where there is no internet really. We are basically joined via wireless equipment over a huge area and distance. What I'm trying to do is to setup a MW2/MW3 server. I' not quite sure how to go about this.

There is one of the guys hosting a dedicated server for us but sometimes his link is down then we stuck without a server for a night or whatever period. He of course uploaded the MW2 files for us with a "aIW-37a-10802" rar file which we had to extract to the game folder. In this as well the "alterIWnet.ini" has his pc's ip and port in which we would then type into the console to connect to him.

Now my question is "HOW DO I GET A SERVER LIKE THAT GOING?"

I'm not sure but I believe he has internet connection so that the aIWnet can be updated. Do I need this too to be able to run a MW2 server so that all on the wireless group can enjoy the game via me hosting it?

Guys/Gals your help is so greatly appreciated if I can get this going. I would love to host a MW3 server as he already hosts the MW2 server and don't wanna offend him by hosting the same server as he does.

Thanx guys
