I don't have major experience but i'm learning . I also know of tq binarys but i haven't been able to get it . I'm just looking for someone to give me advice an such so please anything you guys know and are willing to share as i said i'm willing to learn.

As of right now, your post doesn't provide enough information for me to help you. You could tell us what you're wanting to accomplish with a private server, what you'd like to be able to do with it, or you could keep learning and try to make your own, or use one of the available sources on this forum.

You'll have to do some research on your part. If you would like to be able to customize or change many of the features in your source, a binary server might not be what you're looking for. If you want ninjas, then you could find a publicly released source dedicated to a client version that supports ninjas. If you want something stable, you may have to put forth some effort to create stability within your server. You will need to code, so keep learning. If you feel comfortable with the language, try to code a server yourself, you could use Korvac's Wiki, and refer to the code in other publicly released sources. Start in the [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] section and find a thread that contains the source code to a server that you're looking for, and make sure you know if it's right for you.

Maybe someone with a greater knowledge in this area could provide you with a more detailed explanation.

First of all you should choose the programming language you're starting this project with and read some general tutorials about it. Once you've finished reading these tutorials / understand them at some level you should check out [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] thread.

After that check out the source written by InfamousNoone (Link: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]), this source should provide you with enough learning material for a while.

Like mentioned in previous posts you should also look at Korvacs wiki and see how the packets are implemented in various source, I'd suggest you work on that field based on InfamousNoone's source since it doesn't use pointers, which you shouldn't be concerned about yet.
