Will, Thanks for your suggestion.
What you're describing is kind of what I want to do. I just can't figure out how to download the plugins programmatically. It seems my options are: 1. Use Jenkins CLI a. Install Jenkins b. Use Jenkins to download jenkins-cli.jar c. Run a script to use jenkins-cli.jar to download the plugins d. Instruct Jenkins to reload configuration 2. Use Jenkins a. Install Jenkins b. Use Jenkins to manually install each plugin version we're currently using c. Instruct Jenkins to reload configuration 3. Create our own .war package In each of the first two cases, this requires someone to use Jenkins to install the plugins. In the last case, we would need to continually create .war packages every time we upgrade plugins. I was hoping there was a simple 'rsync', 'scp', 'ftp' or 'wget' method for downloading plugins.
