There is nothing special about the Server edition other than it does
not install ubuntu-desktop, and the installer gives you  the option to
install a LAMP configuration.  All the software installed by any CD
comes out of the Main respository.  You can duplicate the LAMP install
by running this command:

$ sudo apt-get install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server

You can read more information about it on the wiki[1].
