Hi, have you tried to use the jenkins-cli ? That would be the easiest approach if you don't use authentication methods of the main stream.
I have a while ago been crunching on that issue as well and you mail fail - as I did - if you don't use straight forward authentication but something more exotic like TeamForge as Auth Realm. Placing the credentials into the URL won't work afaik. But wget, curl and another tool - whose name I can't recall right now - do have a function that allows you to pass the credentials as parameters. These parameters operate on different ways, depending on the tool you use. Best approach is from curl if I ain't that wrong in remembering ;) That tool needs the field names to know (here j_username and j_password) and the according parameters/credentials. This worked fine but you have to be aware that you may need an extra switch to set the encoding for special characters. It's a bit of testing ...
