    As long as there's no service running on the remote server that allows such access, no you can't. (At least not without cracking into that computer, which we won't help you do.) However, if there's an FTP server or SSH daemon running for example, that could allow the user very similar access as you have to your local file system, if implemented in that way.

    So, what software is running on that server?
