I would use ssh, I'm sure you can use java to set up a ssh connection and then execute a command on the remote host. That would solve your problem I think

re: Executing shell script remotely

I agree, ssh sounds like a good idea. I searched a bit and found this implementation of ssh for Java, as sun doesn't seem to offer ssh itself. I also found this one, however it seems as if they only have examples, but no API.
If I'm not mistaken, both of those are published under the GPL, but I didn't have a close look, so better check yourself if it's anything you're planing to use for workrelated issues or similar.
