I want to get some space in a remote server running Linux. The idea is to create my custom scripts and run them on the remote server.
Idea is this: I am sitting in my class on my windows machine; I fire up terminal and connect to some remote host and am suddenly in a Linux environment.
So is it possible to buy a private space in a remote Linux/UNIX server?
[I have no idea about networking, so I really don’t know if this question is stupid or super simple]

Could use SSH (In windows go with PuTTY). You can use a web based server (like a web host) many give shell access, Hostgator I know does. Or get a micro instance on Amazon Web Services. Or better yet for a student just set up a virtual machine.
