Open the rar file you downloaded and look for "EAsetup.exe."
Thats the one you want. It will install the program, then you can find it in "start->all programs->EA->lotr dedicated server"
Hosting depends on your internet speeds as far as others being able to join and lag go. Also a firewall program can block the launch of this server program so make sure you allow it in you firewall settings.
edit: you dont need to extract the files. just double click the download file to view the contents. then double click "EAsetup.exe". it will extract the files needed for install by itself.
If any troubles, just post. happy hosting.

just because you don't lag doesn't mean the other players aren't lagging. As the host your lag will be at a minimum, but that may or may not be the case for the other people in the server.

Not totally true BM, the only time I lag is when I create a server. The way connections work, imagine a water tower. If one person turns on the water the water pressure is high. The more who use the water the less pressure. I have 9mb download speed and 1.6md upload. When I have a full room with people with shitty connections. It brings my connection to a trickle. Causing me to take most of the lag. I use wireless to my Ps3 and wired to my server. My server usally holds things steady with little lag.

Great, glad you got it working.
Not sure if you're aware but there is a download for the DLC levels: eg; Amon Hen and the like. Download it then follow the read me in the rar file. If i remember right its just extract a folder then paste it into the programs main folder. Its pretty clear in the read me.
