From the license agreement:

If you have a valid licence, you may set up an additional test forum in order to test code, template and database modifications. To make this clear to us and our licence verification procedures, place it in a directory called 'testvb' and be sure to password protect it. It must not be accessible by the general public.

That's all you'll need to do.

As for your shell question, you'll need to download a program to do that. I don't have any program suggestions, so you'll have to wait until somebody else posts one.

Putty is a good SSH client - http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~s.../download.html

To install a test board, just follow the installation instructions again with a new database and new directory. If you have any problems with specific steps of the install process, let me know.
