These packages are available in the repositories. You might want to consider downloading them from there instead of building them yourself, unless you have a specific need. The reason is that they will be pre-configured for your distribution and you will get the needed dependencies in the process. Since you are using Centos, your package manager will be YUM which will have a search function where you can enter the name of the desired package. One thing to note, is that the repositories don't usually have the absolute latest version of a program. This isn't necessarily a bad thing as the version that is there will be known to work with your system in most cases.

I also wanted to ask, what options / process are you thinking that a server should have that yours does not? It is my opinion and a common statement that a server should have no unecessary process as they are both a resource sink and a security risk. This for example is part of why is common for servers to not have X or a GUI installed.
