  <para>
    The <command>rdadmin</command><manvolnum>1</manvolnum> module is used
    to manage the configuration of the Rivendell Radio Automation System.
    When started with no arguments, it will prompt for the credentials of a
    Rivendell user that has the
    <userinput>Administer System</userinput> or
    <userinput>Administer RSS Feeds</userinput> permissions.
    If authentication of those credentials is successful, it will then
    display the main <command>rdadmin</command><manvolnum>1</manvolnum>
    button menu.
  </para>
  <para>
    If invoked by a system user with an effective user id of
    <userinput>0</userinput>
    --i.e. &quot;root&quot; -- and the <userinput>--add-host-entry</userinput>
    option is specified, <command>rdadmin</command><manvolnum>1</manvolnum>
    will bypass the login process and prompt the user to create a new host
    entry for the local system, following which it will exit.
  </para>
