I have a SOHO network that I administer using SSH, Vim, CVS, various 
userland tools, and homebrew scripts (Bourne, Bash, and Perl).  The most 
important element is a networked version control system.


If and when I need to administer many machines, I will learn a 
configuration management tool (most likely Ansible, because it is 
recommended by MWL).
