What do you mean by joining/setting up a tor relay? You wouldn't be here if you were not already using a tor relay.

If you mean to run a tor server, the simplest, zero configuration approach is to use vidalia, to click "Setup relay" and to choose whatever option it is that you want.

If you want to run a tor server permanently, download the appropriate server package for your OS, configure and run it.
