It does mean you get cheaped out of automated install scripts etc, but manual installs work fine for me. On my particular setup it was a pain in the arse because the server had a different local IP address to that of the external IP address. If you're planning to host this into a dedicated server in a datacentre, you should have no problems installing Virtualmin. The install script for Debian 4.0 is also quite handy (ask for a clean lean install [try the net install] - the script should do the rest). I can't find a way to restrict SSH access to domain administrators - however, it does jail/chroot them to their /home/<domain name> folder.

I've used VHCS and ISP-Config in the past, does Virtualmin have any advantages over the two? My main web hosting server has Plesk, but it's only a 30-domain license. I'm looking for a hosting control panel to use on a different server once I reach the 30-domain Plesk limit. Of course, I prefer using SSH directly and manually editing /etc/apache2/sites-available/*, but I host some friends and don't really want to give them SSH access :P Is Virtualmin actually any good?
