Oh k..
The source of the LAN server is at the "server" folder of the MTA San Andreas Installation Folder. (C:/Program Files/MTA San Andreas/server).
Before you proceed, you need to configure the ACL of your server. Go to C:/Program Files/MTA San Andreas/server/mods/deathmatch, then double-click "acl.xml". It should show up your default text editor (Notepad, EditPlus, etc.)
You better find this ACL by browsing the whole XML, or Ctrl + F:
You need to add yourself in the "Admins" group of your MTA server. Here are the exact codes:
Code:
<group name="Admin">
<acl name="Moderator"/>
<acl name="SuperModerator"/>
<acl name="Admin"/>
<acl name="RPC"/>
<object name="user.YOUR USERNAME HERE"/>
<object name="resource.admin"/>
<object name="resource.webadmin"/>
</group>
Go and edit that "YOUR USERNAME HERE" to YOUR username you want. After you input your username, save then exit.
Go back to the "server" folder on your MTA SA program files, (/MTA San Andreas/server/), then double-click "MTA Server.exe". It should start DOS, then these DOS words should appear.
Code:

After the last sentence has appeared, type "start editor" in the DOS, then the Map Editor resource should be loaded.
After you're done with DOS, start your MTA San Andreas program, THEN, Click "Browse Servers", then click on the "Lan" tab above. You should see "Default MTA Server" server, double-click it then GTA will be loaded.
After those steps, you are now in the server.
If you don't find the "Default MTA Server" server, you need to check your firewall and unblock the "MTA Server.exe" program.
If there are more problems, just reply, since I also own a MTA server
