Hi Brian,

What you have read is true. You can control processes on multiple machines 
using the "supervisorctl" command line tool (or supervisor's XML-RPC from 
code). The manual[1] states:

"The command-line client talks to the server across a UNIX domain socket or an 
internet (TCP) socket. The server can assert that the user of a client should 
present authentication credentials before it allows him to perform commands. 
The client process typically uses the same configuration file as the server but 
any configuration file with a [supervisorctl] section in it will work."

I hope this clarifies things.

Cheers,
Jens
