If you're talking about a webhost. No, its very doubtful seeing how you have no access to the servers cmd.exe if its windows. and more than likely the host won't allow it. Worth talking to them if they say ok. then go for it. But don't get your hopes up. If they're anything professional, they'll say no.

you know how people connect to a server because of an IP right?

well, what if you re rooted the files from your computer into a domain name, and backed all the files on my IP address? Then they would be able to go to it just like being able to visit a website.

HA HA!!! simple...
