I would just use binkd and a filebox.

Give that webhost a FTN address (could be anything), setup binkd to answer with that address and your linux host when it sees anything in the outbox for it, just pushes it over.

You could even then have a script (on the webhost), that did something with it, if it needed to.

And if you wanted to, you could probably wrap it around a binkps session (if you wanted some security), a firewall rule that only accepts connects from your linux host - or something like zerotier that gives you a "secure virtual lan" between the 2 hosts.
