Update Database from shell?

You could probably do that with wget. There's a way to use a cookie file, so you could log in with a browser, take that cookie and use it with wget. There's probably a better way, but that would work. Take a look at the wget man pages

I've used the Mechanize Python library (originally a Perl lib rewritten in Python) for a similar thing before. Other than that curl can store cookies, so it might be enough.
