You will get better answers if you precisely define what you want this
"web-based linux access" to do. Do you want something like Webmin,
running on a remote box that you have full access to? Do you want a
remote box that you can access via an ssh client? (Keep in mind that
there are a number of Java-applet ssh clients out there, so you could
ssh from any browser with a working JRE.) What was the name of the
service you were using before?

that's true, sorry. i just want a 'sandpit'. to do command line stuff
with a minimal amount of user space.

Is there some reason you want to do it in a web browser? Why not just
use VMWare-Player (free download from VMWare.com) and use one of their
freely downloadable linux virtual machines from VMWare?
