I assume you have two ethernet cards. Otherwise this becomes a comical situation: The machine can't up its network interface because the http side of things isn't running because the NIC is down... :)
If you don't have two network cards, then you may want to use something like a cyclades box or a KVM, depending on how far away you are from the box. If you do have two ethernet cards, then your suggestion makes more sense and something like Webmin might be suitable.
