I am looking to learn more on how to be setting up a online gaming server, does anyone has experience in setting up such server please contact me.

Or able gave me directions, would appreciate it!

The forum FAQ has some information.

To give you better information, we need to know:
- what kind of game server? Is this for an existing game, like Counter-Strike or Minecraft, or a game you wrote?
- is it for matchmaking, scoreboards, community, etc?
- is it for gameplay, as in a MMO, or for "secure" game servers?
- how many players?
- how much can it cost to operate per concurrent player?
- what country are you in, and does the country of the game server matter?
- do you prefer Mac, Windows, Linux, BSD, ...
... the list goes on.

Some advice :
Whether you learn what kind of game servers, network library is need to understand.
To learn fastly, u need't have to study very deep professional knowledge, we can learn such as how to accept and send a message with a network, them we can learn how to manager some object Scientific and efficient.
