Are you able to remote desktop to the machine?  If you can, that would make the
process easier.  Alternately, I remember there being a remote shell door that I
think was included with Synchronet, or in the CVS, though I don't remember
offhand what it was called.  Something like that could give you remote shell
access via Synchronet.  But at the same time, could you SSH into your remote
Linux machine hosting your BBS?

Not that I know of.
