1boppoom1, I found an error in your site, server ise should be server wise I believe, based on the client wise.
Anyway,
On Windows, the EASIEST way can cost you a little bit depending on how hard you want to take it.
I recommend going out to the store and buying Visual Studio .NET 2003, I happen to use Visual Studio .NET (2002, origional) Professional and it works fine for me, but it has been a while since I have ran a windows server.
Now you get out tortoise cvs, check it out, and then build the source, the copy the binaries and dll's into one directory, and place your zlib dll there too (I am not sure if that is still used or not... I don't think it still is)
Anyway, then you just put in your config files, start it up.
About mysql, you will need to get it from mysql.com, I recommend the GA release, although I happened to use mysql 3.x when I ran my windows server.. but the new version has advantages, you would need to ask someone those as I do not know.
Perl:
Go to activestates website and download perl, then I went and went on their site and downloaded then installed through ppm, the IO-Scaler I believe it was called.
Then I went and downloaded the PEQ database, it was smaller then, now it is about 90MB or so, but I believe when ziped, the download is smaller, about 10MB, I forget.
Anyway, start up a console window "cd" to the server directory unless you put the load_system.sql in your bin folder, then, type in mysql -u root -p
enter the password
type in create eqemulator;
type in use eqemulator;
type in source load_systeml.sql;
Start it up after you config all of your .ini files, and put in your spells_us.txt file
Oh yeah, and you might also want to get a portable TV and a big bottle of Dr. Pepper, as your going to be up tweaking it for a few nights...
Hope this helps.
