Wow, this must be the 20th time i heard this question. Maybe it should be included in the FAQ.

Anyways, here we go again:

No, unless you have shell access which is rather unlikely if you're in a shared webhosting situation i should add. Then you could download the TS server in the appropriate OS version and install it. Otherwise all you can do is ask your webhoster nicely and if that fails use one of the public servers or rent your own.

If you don't know what shell access is you shouldn't have it. No offense intended.

On windows you have the terminal server which is nearly the same (just a graphical version).
