remote, and requests it to perform one of several actions.
COMMANDS
info Prints info about the server status
sources Prints a list of the information sources
kill-source
Kill a remote information source, specified by its reported ID
logrotate
Rotates a local (*and only local*) log file specified by PATH.
trace Manipulates the tracing mechanism. TRACE should be the string
that specifies the modules to be traced, and Cherokee must have
been compiled with the --enable-trace option for this to work.
Everything traceable with CHEROKEE_TRACE can also be traced
this way.
PARAMETERS
URL Required before any command. This is the URL where the adminisā
tration interface can be found. This target must be defined
previously in herokee-admin enabling a "Remote Administration"
type handler (Virtual Servers->Behaviour->Add new rule, and
then Handler->"Remote Administration"). The deffinition of a
security mechanism is highly encouraged.
