I have only a vague recollection of looking at this module... IIUC
these are command line commands that connect to a running server and
tell it to do something. IIUC the server can be on a different
machine? Do they need more information about the server than its
host and port? I would think that the specific configuration of a
server might be info we wouldn't want to publish let alone require
for using the tools.... so I wonder what information from server.xml
is actually needed?
thanks
