ok... most rent able servers have some sort of management interface, (something like webmin)? if they don't i would recommend using centOS or Ubnutu NOT FC. you will get hacked if you do. then just yum install Apache or apt-get install apache.

here is a guide http://www.howtoforge.org/perfect_setup_centos5.0
