I doubt if you will get the detailed reply with all your questions. Every service provider may have different methods to configure their own server. Have you googled for solution?

The best way to learn is to discover things for yourself, at least that's what worked for me and many of my friends in the industry.

Purchase a cheap start-up server, try to configure it yourself, change operating systems, bind IP addresses, install control panels and so on. After a few days, you'll have the answers to all of your questions!

And if you need any help, feel free to pm me

It all depends. Sometimes automation is good, sometimes it's bad in these areas due to fraudulent orders and custom orders.

Dedicated server means a server computer which is fully dedicated to serve a(or many) websites. It is setup manually by buying a pc and installing some softwares like apache,cpanel etc... (many more)

a vps is a virtual machine inside a server. which means, a vps acts as a separate server(with separate OS , control panels,specs etc..) but actually is a part of the dedicated server. It is setup using virtualisation platforms.(many available)
