clavus - been a while, buddy!
Here's the quick and dirty of it: You have two server types to select: Listen and Dedicated. A Listen server will allow you to play and watch the action. A Dedicated server will run in the system tray and will only show a text box for commands, etc. Dedicated is good with your particular 2D video system. While you run the server, you can browse with IE for great commands online like Kick....
Anyway, here's how you get in to it:
Launch UT2004
Click Host Game
Choose Game Type (Assault, Deathmatch, etc). Make sure you click one.
Select Maplist Configuration and select the maps you want to serve.
Click Game Rules and configure.
Click Server Rules and configure those, too.
Select Listen or Dedicated server.
That's about it. There's obviously a lot of details you can twiddle, but most of the defaults work quite well.
Have fun. And let us know what the server name is. Some TFP runnin and gunnin would be cool!
