Hi Jim, I'm not on Lion, but usually your login options are kept locked. Is there a button that might be labeled something like "Click the lock to make changes?" that you can navigate to and click? An authentication window should appear prompting you for your Admin password. Then try setting up the login options for your account. The pop up button for "Automatic login" and the check box for "Use VoiceOver in the login window" should be undimmed. When you're finished, you can VO-Space on the "Click the lock to prevent further changes" button to lock things again.
Hope things are working well now for you. Incidentally, it seems that with the newer Mac Mini servers that come with both Lion server and Lion preloaded, you don't have to go through the complicated upgrade path you faced in order to just use the new Man Mini with Lion.
