Ok, so my friend and I are trying to setup a game so we can play factorio with each other, but every time he trys to join it says "uploading map info" then give a progress bar and then goes through a couple cycles, after waiting an hour of we finally said "screw it".
Any ideas? oh and we are using log me in hamachi to try to setup the server.

Have you tried Hamachi or Evolve?
Also there are lots of dedicated server hosters for Factorio, check the partners site:
https://www.factorio.com/partners or use google.

I actually meant Zcoolest and his rant, but I guess the advice also works for you
