[snip]Download and install WinRar.
(Used for unzipping most of the server files)
2.) Download MsSQL 2005 Express Edition
(SQL is used to store a lot of the player data, mainly clan information and login information)
3.) Download MsSQL Server Managment Studio
(Used to manipulate SQL much easier.)
4.) If your running the server off of Windows XP ensure you have .NET Framework 2.0 installed. [/snip]
The above is a snippet from his post. That, my friend, is not a FAQ. That is a step-by-step telling you exactly what to do.

5.) Download any of the the files under the ---[Server Files]--- section in the RFT Thread, I would suggest the McMadness Repack or the 1855 Server & Client. I might pack a couple sets of pre-configured server files with different rates later on.
(The in fact server software used for players to login and play, etc etc)
6.) Download the PT SQL Scripts.
7.) Download the clan files from the RFT Thread under the ---[Clan Files]--- section, I would suggest the Sandurr 2.0 Files *Help topic here* or *HappHardcore's General Clan Troubleshooting Guide*
(Only if you plan on having working clans)
I guess 5 can be confusing since this is an old guide and most of those server download links don't work anymore. My post should have solved that one for ya though. The Fusion Repack has all the files you need. Also, the repack includes the PT SQL files from #6. ALSO, #7 is, as stated, completely optional. You do NOT need clan files.
