You don't need a server. Use whatever is easier for you. You can use a router (best if you have a broadband connection), a switch (best if you use dialup), a hub or a crossover cable. Then just read the backburner help files and discreet support page. It's very simple. Just watch the network paths for materials and stuff like that. It's all in the help files.
