If you have many diverse machines to administer (e.g., some Solaris, mixed with RedHat, mixed with Debian, mixed with BSD), then Webmin is probably good, since it gives you a more "common" administrative interface. Other than that, it will only prevent you from learning the inner workings of your system.
