The only thing that makes a DS a DS is the presence of a serverclass.conf file under $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/. I like to manually edit it and place it in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local. Then just add to it manually from the CLI or from Settings -> Forwarder management. Also, configure other servers to point to it using a deploymentclient.conf file. This is a client-pull architecture, meaning that nothing is "pushed out", the clients "pull in" apps and changes to apps.

(that's the first result when entering "splunk deployment server" on Google. Do you require further info?)

No. I really think the docs do a very good job of explaining the step-by-step process very clearly. If you have problems grasping the concepts, I suggest you take some Splunk training (see http://www.splunk.com/view/education/SP-CAAAAH9 ).
