big thanks to that guy who is able to help me!!!!

It depends on you are going to run a dedicated host or not..
You will need to download the dedicated host file from the official site.

This will make it alot easier for you Dedigui is a little windows program that lets you easily setup a server; without any of the hassle of messing with CFG files. It will create it for you. Just select the options you want. You'll need 3 pieces of info for it.

Your IP: The Port for the game 63392, the InSim Port: 29999

The rest of the options are up to you. I also suggest you read the command.txt file, within your LFS Docs folder. It has all the commands you'll want for the server (so you can understand them), and all the commands you can use IN your server once you have it going. When you get it going, join through "Join Server" rather than display servers. Enter your IP, your host password, and click go and your there.

You can do it with the full LFS client, by going to Multiplayer > Start New Multiplayer game (doing this YOU are hosting the game. Once you leave, the game is gone). You can use the dedicated server (several articles available), or you can rent a server from someone like 500servers, or HPR-network, or similar (costs money, but they do all the hard work for you).

The above is stated in several articles. Perhaps I should go about making it clearer though.

I don't want to sound shitty, but there are several guides, both more technical and not technical. The problem is that making the actual server itself is EASY. The problem is the rest of the setup, which is largely unique for how you have your home connection setup - unless you want to embark on doing it full time, you will never beable to reach the stage where you have all possible combinations with screenshots describing it.

I appreciate that things aren't as easy they could be for making a server, but that's generally because you sort of need to understand some basic networking stuff in order to get your way through it.

so am i right that i need just download 1 program and setup my server there,and the server will be up if i am not in even but if i just make my own server,then it will be gone after i log out it?

but what about those max players,how do i get it work,first gtg to lfs then make server or what???

well i tried this program someway but server dont go up,even if i but the place internet

well; if you have broadband. You probably have a router. If so; you will need to setup port forwarding within your modem. Go to portforwarding.com

Pick your router, then pick LFS. And do what it says. Its quite simple to do. Then; Dedigui should have your server working for you. You won't see it in the master list within LFS though, just join your game as I said, n ur away. Just cause u don't see it in lfs servers, doesn't mean its not there. If you want to check, go to LFS desktop, n look in hosts online there...
