Simple question

[ouchyfish]

I am new here. I apologize profusely if I am going against any rule for asking here but...

Is there any chance at all for a complete idiots guide of step by step instructions, and I mean i-d-i-o-t-s guide, to setting up a simple little server.

basically all i want is for my wife and I to relive our old fun of playing together. I Just want to be able to play on a server, just she and i with preferably accelerated xp (300-400%). We are not looking for pvp or the griefers it brings, just a little simple server for us two to run around on.

I can't find any idiots guides out there anywhere. Anyone know of any? please?

we both already have the retail copies of the files so no, we aren't asking for those.

Thank you so very much if anyone can help me. I'm really lost here. I installed mysql, the eqemu folder, the perl walkthrough but I cant get anything working even remotely close.

Thanks all. Once again i sincerely apologize if this is wrong. =(
