+.TH PROSODYCTL 1 "2009-07-02"
+
+.SH NAME
+prosodyctl \- Manage a Prosody XMPP server
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBprosodyctl\fP \fIcommand\fP [\fI--help\fP]
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBprosodyctl\fP is the control tool for the Prosody XMPP server. It may be
+used to control the server daemon and manage users.
+
+\fBprosodyctl\fP needs to be executed with sufficient privileges to perform
+its commands. This typically means executing \fBprosodyctl\fP as the root user.
+If a user named "prosody" is found then \fBprosodyctl\fP will change to that
+user before executing its commands.
+
+.SH COMMANDS
+.SS User Management
+In the following commands users are identified by a Jabber ID, \fIjid\fP, of the
+usual form: user@domain.
+
+.IP "\fBadduser\fP \fIjid\fP"
+Adds a user with Jabber ID, \fIjid\fP, to the server. You will be
+prompted to enter the user's password.
+
+.IP "\fBpasswd\fP \fIjid\fP"
+Changes the password of an existing user with Jabber ID, \fIjid\fP. You will be
+prompted to enter the user's new password.
+
+.IP "\fBdeluser\fP \fIjid\fP"
+Deletes an existing user with Jabber ID, \fIjid\fP, from the server.
+
+.SS Daemon Management
+Although \fBprosodyctl\fP has commands to manage the \fBprosody\fP daemon it is
+recommended that you utilize your distributions daemon management features if
+you attained Prosody through a package.
+
+To perform daemon control commands \fBprosodyctl\fP needs a \fIpidfile\fP value
+specified in \fI/etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua\fP. Failure to do so will cause
+\fBprosodyctl\fP to complain.
+
+.IP \fBstart\fP
+Starts the \fBprosody\fP server daemon. If run as root \fBprosodyctl\fP will
+attempt to change to a user named "prosody" before executing. This operation
+will block for up to five seconds to wait for the server to execute.
+
+.IP \fBstop\fP
+Stops the \fBprosody\fP server daemon. This operation will block for up to five
+seconds to wait for the server to stop executing.
+
+.IP \fBstatus\fP
+Prints the current execution status of the \fBprosody\fP server daemon.
+
+.SS Ejabberd Compatibility
+\fBejabberd\fP is another XMPP server which provides a comparable control tool,
+\fBejabberdctl\fP, to control its server's operations. \fBprosodyctl\fP
+implements some commands which are compatible with \fBejabberdctl\fP. For
+details of how these commands work you should see
+.BR ejabberdctl (8).
+
+.IP "\fBregister\fP \fIuser server password\fP"
+.IP "\fBunregister\fP \fIuser server\fP"
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP \fI--help\fP
+Display help text for the specified command.
+
+.SH FILES
+.IP \fI/etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua\fP
+The main \fBprosody\fP configuration file. \fBprosodyctl\fP reads this to
+determine the process ID file of the \fBprosody\fP server daemon and to
+determine if a host has been configured.
