Does Fedora still have the redhat-config-* utilities? If
so, any of those whose names end in 'tui' should be usable
without X.
Another idea that might help would be to run the utilities
on the web server but display them on another machine that
does have X. You might need to install some portions of
XFree86 but just not fire up an X server. You should be
able to ssh in to the web server machine and then run the
X clients.
Good luck.
