[Zope] wget to manage zope - manage_restart

[Gustin Kiffney]

I've got zope running on an intranet NT server and its ODBC connection keeps a
number of database files open at all times which my backup system can't handle. 
Hitting the zope control panel restart button closes those files long enough to
get them backed up, but I'd like to do this later at night and automatically
because the files get opened again as soon as someone hits the site (all the
picklists, etc come out of the ODBC database files).  So far I can't figure out
how to do this.  It looks like just hitting the URL

http://superuser:password@myserver/Control_Panel/manage_restart?

should work (I'm using wget on a linux box to do this) should work, and it DOES
work from IE, but it doesn't work from wget - here's what happens with wget
doing this with that exact same url:

I guess wget tries without authorization first:

Bobo-Exception-Value: <strong>You are not authorized to access this resource.</s

then wget says this:

Then, from that point on, trying to access anything on that site gives me this:

Error: Error Type: ValueError
Error Value: I/O operation on closed file
Traceback:

and the only way to get zope going again is to manually restart it in NT Control
Panel using the Services dialog box.  

Anybody see what I'm doing wrong here?
