I am assuming you are using Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007.
If your server machine is going to have Office and BCM installed, you can just use BCM configuration wizard to create a database. Once the database is created. goto Business Contact Manager->Database Tools->Share Database and go through the wizard to share the database and add permissions etc. At the end of the process, there will be an HTML file created with instructions on how client can connect to this database.
If you want to have dedicated server and don't want to install Office and BCM on that machine, you can follow instructions on this whitepaper http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f24267ee-9ad5-4be5-b888-c9a50ae395ca&DisplayLang=en
