Please ensure you have read the server overview

After installing Jamulus you will find an entry for "Jamulus server" in the Windows start menu, or in Applications on Mac (assuming you put the files from the install there from these instructions).

When starting the server, type in the name, city and country so that other users can easily identify you. As of Jamulus v3.5.4, you can also specify a musical genre for it if you wish so that it will appear in the relevant server list on the client.

If you want the server to be started automatically on system start, enable the corresponding check box.
