well, then you're right in the middle of 'knowing how' :-)
in most cases you don't want X on a server, so setting up ssh is
essential for that matter. if you insist on having a gui on the server,
install (k|x)ubuntu-desktop. whatever you prefer...
but i would advise against, cause on a production system, you most likey
will have no X.

just my 2 euro cents ;)
