Devil Linux remote administration?

I was looking at Devil Linux, but I was looking for tools for remote administration, but couldn't find anything.
Is it possible, or should I find something else?

I use RealVNC for gui remote administration on Fedora and RedHat Enterprise Linux. It's java based and works on almost everything (Unix/Linux, Windows, MAC OS X, etc...).

I tend to use putty from a windows/desktop laptop to put up a ssh shell to remote servers. When I need to talk to multiple servers I use cssh (cluster ssh), which is an X based product (aka it throws X windows onto the laptop/desktop). This works great for sending packages to multiple servers at the same time.

Webmin is a very comprehensive web-enabled remote admin tool. It covers off pretty much anything you need to do....

I haven't installed anything yet, but it looks like webmin will work fine.
