QuoteIve installed ubuntu server 12.4 on this but done nothing else with the server. I have my personal computer that im using now currently running on windows 7, Ten below advised me to use cs studio instead of putty and winscp, not too sure what any of these programs do just to make you aware, originally I thought cs studio had to be installed on the server but ten below advised it needs to be installed on a separate computer.
OK M8, WinSCP & Putty are basically used for remotely controlling your server from another PC. (So you will install them on another PC)
Ten suggested CS Studio to you because it had all the tools in one Application..
QuoteIve gone into my router and setup a static ip for the server but not opened a port as of yet, not completely sure how to do it via my router settings
It is not necessary to open a port in your router just yet.. Firstly get the server running on your local network..
QuoteFeel like I have only completed number 1 of this tutorial but not sure on where I go from here now. Would it be possible for admin to teamviewer my system or give me some advice.
As a last resort, TeamViewer would be an option but I would not recommend it without first attempting the install.
People who get TeamViewer help to setup their server without making any attempt themselves usually learn nothing and end up having more questions every day..
I have read back over the tutorial from Step 2 and all your questions are answered.
Please read it again and have another go..
