You might be better posting this in a Ubuntu support list such as  
[ubuntu-users Info Page](https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users) as it does not  
appear to be a RoR issue.

Investigate whether you can ssh up to your shared server. If you can  
then I suggest you invest a little bit of time to set up capistrano  
deployment via ssh and at the same time use git too. It will save you  
so much time.

See [http://www.capify.org/index.php/Capistrano](http://www.capify.org/index.php/Capistrano)
