This software is for those who have used jails and want a controlled way
to manage and shut them down, etc.

It is to be installed inside a jail (NOT THE HOST SYSTEM) and will
manage the processes.  A jailer process runs inside each jail and
manages the startup and shutdown.

To shutdown or restart the jail, signal the jailer process running
inside that jail.  The signals are:

  -QUIT Shutdown jail but leave jailer running
  -HUP  Restart the jail 
  -TERM Shutdown the jail and exit the jailer
