Hudson -- Dumb slave

I have been playing with Hudson slaves lately, I was wondering what a dumb slave is? and when is it beneficial to use?

An example would be nice. They suggest there are other types of slaves but they then again list none.

Thanks

The "dumb slave" is the basic slave available with Hudson (presumably extensions could add "smart slaves"). As it is, the "dumb slave" actually provides several different methods for starting processes on a given slave machine. For more information, see here:
