Well, unfortunately the current servers (including the Linux version) all require a GUI (that is, an X server and window manager) installation.
That makes it impossible to run them on almost all internet server machines.
If however you happen to have a Windows server as your website server, or can run the Linux server on a machine with the OpenGL libraries installed, then there is nothing special in running the demo in server-only mode.
Hope that helps.
