---- server stalled. need to find out why

I am using Redhat Linux Fedora 8.
Over the weekend the server crashed, and when I came in this morning none of the urls were resolving to the server.
Dunno exactly what was wrong, but one of the engineers in the hosting place 'rebooted apache' which seemed to fix the problem.

I want to find out what caused the crash, and also when it happened.
I have been looking through the log files without really knowing what I am looking for...

Where should I look? What strategy should I pursue to find out what killed the server?

Thanks
Ed
