Mr. Goel, Your set up is impressive!
But I would suggest you some thing. You can go for some web based module for your accounting work and you can even customize them as per your needs. Because using some thing via telnet is cumbersome. Hopefully you are agreeing with my statement. You can go for desktop based applications also, but that I will not suggest that you as if you release a new version of some application, all 400 nodes have to update it. But in case of web based things, you just have to change at one location. You can get better security options via SSL etc. If you think web based application is a good idea, I would suggest you to use PHP+MySql+Apache............. the fastest combination. But I know some one pointed some bugs in PHP one or two years back..... I think that person was Raj Mathur....I am not sure............. you can also use java/jsp/servlet etc, but I would just suggest PHP. But your setup is really an impressive one, after google (using more than 2000 Linux servers) I heard first time that some one is using such a huge number of Linux machines.

Now we used the software using telnet / ssh. The software is in server computing mode, Using text based sofware, we are able to share a dial-up connection in 15-20 computers for using our ERP. Because band width cost is a major factor in the implementation of our ERP. Our branches are more than 200. all branches required 24 Hours internet connections for doing there day to day activites.
