I don't think you can deploy to a prod server without SOMEBODY having  
shell access.

Is it that YOU don't have access (and your SysAdmin does) or that it's  
a crappy webhost that doesn't offer shell access?

Although you'll be able to deploy, you won't be able to build your  
database from the command line, or clear your cache. I guess you could  
fudge it together using phpMyAdmin and dumping from a dev machine, but  
that's just wrong. It's a world of pain, and not at all the best  
practice.

If it's a crappy webhost, I recommend you switch - DreamHost offers  
shell access and it's only about $4/month.

If it's that you need your SysAdmin to hit some keys for you, bribe  
them. Chocolate works well ;)
