Server Setup for iPhone Push Notifications

Question

I'm new to the whole push notifications thing, and was wondering if somebody could walk me through the process of getting a simple application up and running. I currently rent a server that I use to serve my website that runs cPanel X.

How would I go about setting up the service? What software do I need to install on the server? How do I upload code to the server?

Sorry if these are really dumb questions - I'm not really a web developer.

Thanks in advance!

I would go to the Apple Developer Forums. They have many questions and answers regarding this. For my apps, I use a Ruby On Rails plugin called apn_on_rails, but this is probably not an option for you on a shared host with some sort of admin gui. Your shared host probably runs php so I would look for a php implementation.
