PortForwarding:

Portforwarding varies in many ways; this is because of your router/modem model.
So for this, you will need to below your router/modem model and i will put a guide up for you.
Alternativly, you can find it yourself at www.portforward.com

Exceptions in Firewall:

You will need to allow your servers port to be opend by your firewall.
To do that, follow this:

• Go to 'start'
• Click 'control panel'
• Open 'windows Firewall'
• Click on the 'Advanced' tab
• Click 'Add port'
• Put 'P server' as the name
• Put '43594' as the port
• Check 'TCP' box
• Click add

Now we will need to do the same again but add UDP instead...

• Go to 'start'
• Click 'control panel'
• Open 'windows Firewall'
• Click on the 'Advanced' tab
• Click 'Add port'
• Put 'P server' as the name
• Put '43594' as the port
• Check 'UDP' box
• Click add

Adding variables:

• Click 'start'
• Open 'My computer'
• Right click anywhere and click 'properties'
• Click the 'Advanced' tab
• Click 'Enviomental variables'
• Under 'system variables' click 'new'
• For the name put 'Path'
• For the variable put

Code:

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem

Downloading JDK (Java Development Kit)

JDK (Java Development Kit) is needed to edit java.
Your server will be coded in .java files.
So you will need JDK to edit them as you wish.

Download it here:

Editing your compiler to make it work:

Most compilers will probably not work for you, assuming you have downloaded the aboe, you may continue.
Go to your folder with your server files in; you should seea Batch file named 'Compiler'.
Right click it and press 'Edit'.

Now, replace the whole code with this

Code:

@echo off
Title Compiler
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\bin\javac.exe" *.java
pause

Save and close it.
