You can host a dedicated server using your game disk/steam game or you can use the dedicated server software.
I will provide a link to the dedicated server software later when I find the right links (I will edit this post).
basic dedicated server software: http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1390 (note: requires patch for SWBFspy use)
SWBF2 server patch for SWBFspy: http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=1258
If you host from home (either method) you will need to portforward from your router to your hosting computer. (I will edit this post with the port numbers.)
Here is a discussion about port numbers:

The host computer will (of course) need to be left on all the time. Usually, you can't also play with the host computer, but there is a trick that might work.
You can also rent a game server/computer, but I will only go into those details if you tell me that you want to go with that option.
How can I post via the Internet?
