Install the server on the server system. Install the agent on the agent system (these are 2 different systems). Add the agent to the server. Add the key to the agent. Restart the ossec processes on the server, then the agent. These aren't complete, but you can start looking through them: http://devio.us/~ddp/ossec/docs27/ossec101/installation_intro.html#installation-walk-throughs
