Yes, you can do system admin work remotely. Most of the time, I would say a systems administrator does exactly as it says - administrate systems (usually several systems if the company is big)...What tasks what that include?

1) Company hires a new employee and needs to setup a Windows account for them..
2) Server is having spam sent off of it..admin needs to find the compromised account and handle it
3) System is compromised by another type of trojan/virus/attack..system admin needs to find and patch it
4) Server needs a new script/software installed or updated

Those are just a few examples that quickly come to mind..
