hi there! i have just intalled Windows 2003.

i want to run my own SA-MP server off of it as my host is now gone...

i know its the same in windows XP, but when i did that, port forwarded etc, nobody could connect, so i have a few questions:

1: will running windows server 03 make a difference?

2: what do i need to set the server as to make it run automatically? (so when i get my control panel it will restart by closing samp.exe and then start it again)

3: do i need to port forward ETC to make it run?

thanks alot in advance guys, TFZ will hopefully be back online soon!

Make SA-MP server a service and then it should restart whenever it fails.
