Windows Server Setup

Wow... I wish i had kept going with my server back when the guide didn't have such a crippling C++'y design to it *as far as compuker literacy goes, i'm just short of having just crawled out from under a rock!*... And all the stuff you have to download... oy, *insert profane verbidge/nounidge here*. Just looking at the very first section of the guide, i may never get my server up and going...

Have you even given it a shot? What's new now that you didn't have to do back before the "crippling C++'y design"? I've been doing mine for 3 years and there's nothing new now from a server perspective. There are some new clients. If you don't want to compile the source, then don't. Use one of the pre-compiled sets.
