Linux bulk management tool

[Ian]

I was wondering if anyone knows of an open source management interface, that will integrate with lots of Linux installes.

For example, I could have an overview list of all of the Linux servers/instances that I use and then do things like see server loads, network stats, SSH into them, etc... It would be a really handy way of managing them and keeping them up to date.

Has anyone seen something like this before for Linux?

Have you read these already? OK, fine, random stuff, but...

Thanks Urmas, I've had a read of those links (and other similar ones I found) and the tools I can find that look like what I'm after are Nagios and Pandora FMS.

However, they both look like they're more for web servers - I was hoping for something that would let me quickly patch servers, alert me to online/offline status, but don't have a need for the advanced server monitoring side of things.
