Windows

Open command prompt by going in the Minetest installation folder, then in the "bin" folder, hold Shift, do a right click on a empty file (not on minetest.exe), click "Open command window here".
Type this, without quotes: "minetest.exe --server".
If you get the error "Multiple worlds are available.", use "minetest.exe --server --worldname world_name" instead, where world_name is the name of the world.
If your server crashes, then look at the debug.txt in /Minetest/bin/ where i put the IP and PORTFORWARD?!?!!? :(

For port forwarding, see: http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=4342
(your router must have UPnP enabled)

Else, just look at what kaeza posted.
