  In case you haven't already found it.  Here's the Wiki page for Tramp & other
  stuff...
  http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?TrampMode

  Or this might be faster...
  http://ls6-www.informatik.uni-dortmund.de/~grossjoh/emacs/tramp.html 

  There is a tramp-compile command that I've used to do remote grepping.
  C-h a <ret> tramp shows among other things...

  tramp-compile                 M-x tramp-compile RET
    Command: Compile on remote host.
