I will post a reply, which may or may not be helpful to you. You said "using
a web browser", but it is unclear to me whether it /strictly/ has to be a
Web browser. I will assume that Citrix et al. are just something that you
happen to see before and used as an analogy.

If your guest machine runs *NIX, you can simply use SSH. With some
distributions, you may need to actively download, install, or enable SSH.
If you seek a Web browser-based solution because of a need for
inter-operability, I will assume that you use Windows. In that case, take
advantage of Putty:

Use it with an X-session software like X-WinPro.

If you do not require and graphical interface >and you wish to use the
browser<, then use a Web-based SSH client, e.g.:

   (WARNING: exploiting bandwidth at Duke U.)

Then, there is also cygwin:

Hope it helps,

Roy
