If you're running linux now and familiar with linux, by SSH-ing to the server, 
you will have all the comand-line control of the server from wherver you're 
now. If you're familiar with telnet, then SSH is a secure version of telnet.

Provided the ssh server (sshd) is setup on the server, all you need to do 
(from console):

$> ssh remoteserver.domain.com -l username
and then enter your password.

If ssh server is not setup on your remote server, then go look and the redhat 
manual / customization guide on how to set up SSH server. All the RPM needed 
is included in the distribution (openssh*), and if you're should be installed 
by default. 

If you don't know what SSH or Telnet is, probably you should look into reading 
for basic linux administration book. It is one of the most basic thing you 
need to know.
