# Program jembossctl

## Function

Jemboss Authentication Control

## Description

jembossctl should not be run by typical users. It is a slave program for the Jemboss server. If this means nothing to you, then you do not need to know anything more, just ignore this program.

If you are setting up a Jemboss server (This is not the Jemboss interface that anyone can download, it is the software that listens to the Jemboss interfaces and runs the EMBOSS programs for you), then this program should be 'chmod 4755' to get root. Details are to be found on the Jemboss web pages.

## Usage

It is not used by normal users. It is only ever run by other programs.
