Getting a server to run is not hard at all.
akkadius made this a 2 step process.
The hard part is learning everything needed that goes along with maintaining/building onto the current platform.
Usually in most scenarios you will have:
a. Database Administrator
b. Source programmer
c. Script/content developer
d. Backend IT operations
The part that is the most difficult is combining a,b,c,d into one person. This can be severely overwhelming due to having to cram multiple different platforms into a small window of knowledge.
It won't happen overnight, but theres enough information on the interwebs that you can definitely learn quickly.
It's not as easy as WoW servers, where they provide you tools that do your scripts for you by inputting the values you want, or any respositories for custom code work.
All this is usually done manually.
