Solutionor when the (unidentified) OS was installed
on the (unidentified) server?
There are usually some files which are
created when the OS is installed, like, say,
"/etc/hosts". If no one has modified them,
then their date-time values should be good
clues.

Re: Server installation date
on RedHattish systems you could try something like this
# perl -le 'print scalar localtime $ARGV[0]' $(rpm --qf %{installtime} -q basesystem)

Re: Server installation date
If it's ext2 or ext3, do:
tune2fs -l
That should be quite clear about installation date...
