I have a dedicated leased server that I run a few sites on.  Can I use it to mine, and if so, can someone point me in the right direction on how to set things up?

Yes you could use it to mine. Just SSH into it (I assume it's running Linux) and set up like normal from there.

this only works if your server has a graphics card. if you're going to mine with the CPU, don't bother, because it generates very little bitcoins.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Well, I figure I could run it in conjunction with my efforts at home.  It's free CPU bandwidth I'd still be paying for anyway.  Costs me nothing extra to run it Smiley
