Yup! You can run it in a remote SSH terminal window! 

I use it to configure iptables (sort of! My needs are really basic)

I configure my servers for passwordless SSH, which is more secure,
I think. And I don't have to worry about people trying brute force 
attacks (though still vulnerable to DoS I guess).
