A host (in this case), is a remote 'computer' you hire. Not your computer.
You have to upload (and install) all server files (ShaiyaServer), to the Host you hired.
You will also install SQL Server and install the Shiaya DB files.
You have to put in the .INI files, the IP of your host (your host provider will give you the IP)
After that, your 'public' server will be in the remote host, not on your PC anymore.
Players will be connecting to that remote Host, not your PC.
Any changes your make to the DB (items, mobs, etc), you'll have to make it on the Host DB.
You will also need a web host, to put your patches (updates), and your website.
So no, you don't need to have your computer On, once you have everything on the "Host".
