File share access over the internet

I want to configure Mac OSX server to for some file sharing over the internet - AFP and possibly SMB too.

I have just purchased a static Ip and use a BT2700HGV router. I am a novice at this sort of thing and need to know how I configure the router to allow my services through (port forwarding) and how I can then access them from the other computers on the internet.

 

Do I need a VPN? or can I access my files straight from the browser?

What are my next steps as I'm a bit lost?

Since posting I have managed to sort out port forwarding and get some services up and running. The rest will follow I am sure.
