There is no built-in way to create a remote repository (a fossil server
represents the _one_ repository which must already exist before the server
can start). You have to create the .fsl file, run fossil ui once to set the
admin password, upload it to the server, and either run it (if you're
running it as a server) or set up a CGI script wrapper to run it (for CGI
use).
