Yes, just load http://IP:9981 on another machine (IP being the address of the machine you installed openelec on)

That depends, do you want to use this machine as a desktop, htpc only or just a headless server?
If a desktop install something like Ubuntu desktop 14.04 LTS (for stable long term support) or 15.10 for more up to date (slightly less stable) system with a GUI.
You can stick with openelec if you plan on attaching a screen to the machine for media playback or install Ubuntu server or debian for a headless one. - You'll need to ssh into the machine (if headless) to administer it though.

That's because openelec is mainly used for HTPC systems.
Take a look at this
WIP doc @
http://docs.tvheadend.org/ that should help a little.
