+1 for incompetent. The GUI on the server is never for managing the server, really, but it's a Desktop Environment. That is why it's not installed when you select the "server" option during install. However, for starters, you can select "Desktop" mode, configure the WM to listen on 127.0.0.1 and still end up with a Server. A server is simply applications installed (and sometimes glued together) to serve a purpose. It's never defined as hardware.

From a security perspective, this is a good option as you have minimum services running and you therefore enable others on demand rather than vice-versa.

Most linux distros install the "server" option with no gui

I have a 64 bit in production and its running very smooth. if i really really need the GUI, i installed desktop via yum and i would just type startx
