## NAME

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **grubclient** and **grub\_safe** commands. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**grubclient** is a client for an open source distributed networked search engine.  It requests URLs to check from the server, checks them and return results to the server.  **grub\_safe** is a quick method to start grubclient in the background.
