Building Private DayZ Server Step By Step

[SpyderXL98z24 0]

Ok ive been searching, watching videos, reading posts, downloading jacked files....

Is there a step by step how to on setting up the Day Z server for LAN/Private use? I dont want to have this server on the main DayZ network. I bunch of local guys has asked me to setup the server for them, and honestly id like to install test everything and make sure server 2012 will work well enough before I dedicate servers to the main network.

Ive installed Arma2 and Arrowhead via steam, and used the Six updater program to install the files for DayZ but i believe this is for only playing the game.

I cant find a Guide on building the server side and configuring everything properly to allow connections. This has by far been one of the most complicated Game server setups ive attempted.

Any help would be appreciated and please dont link me to old videos or old how to's.... Ill probably have to uninstall everything ive done and start from scratch anyhow.

like i said any help would be appreciated. Sorry for sucha n00b post but im at my wits end!

Just an FYI server wise: Dual Dual Xeon 3.2Ghz, 8GB ram, RAID10 15000rpm SATA's... this should be more than enough to host this game?

wtf are you talking about? I own about 100 servers and I have my own datacenter... No where do it say you have to pay to run this mod. The Game is already purchased. If there is a step by step or if i even have to purchase a license to use the Dayz mod cool wtf ever. That wasnt my question. There is no documentation on install, setup, and how to. Dont try and e-hard ass me kid... This is for a private LAN setup in a building where these guys play. If you cant point me in the right direction please for the love of god fuck off. Also why the fuck would i pay them to run their game on my equipment for their users.

Way to be a real jerk. He said in his post that he installed it from steam, which means he bought it.

To the OP, you need basic MySQL knowledge and know how to follow instructions. That being said it's fairly simple. Here's a guide that i was able to google up for you.
