Fedora doesn't have a server edition, and indeed, cannot really be
considered a good server O/S.
Fedora 11, if not already EOL (End of Life), is nearing it. Another
reason it's a poor choice as a server is that after 18 months or so, it
reaches EOL, with no more updates readily available.
Fedora 13 is the current release, with F14 already at beta.
Part of Fedora's point is to test new things, another reason it's a poor
choice of server. Although this is changing, thanks to a few people on
the team, they often throw in these things that will drastically change
something, without bothering to document it.
Its default installation gives you a bloated, graphic, relying on the
GUI installation, which requires some knowledge to work around.
As for installation, if you go to http://fedoraproject.org and go to the
documentation on the link, you will find very detailed documentation
guides, but they do assume that you're a home user who uses DHCP and
wants to have a machine that boots, just like Windows, into a pretty
splash screen with no indication of what's happening.
They also assume you're too stupid to be root, but that's another story.
CentOS is frequently recommended for those who want a RedHat style
server, the trouble with CentOS--and with RedHat Enterprise--is that
they're running really old versions of some things, making it difficult,
and sometimes impossible, to install current versions of programs--for
example, Google chrome won't build on RedHat without a LOT of work.
