After reading Jim's mail I turned myself to the cron. I had already
written a simple script to http-call a DTMLDocument that calls my
external method. It works, but now that you told me about ZClient I see
I could have saved some time with just a single command

ZClient.py [-u username:password] url [name=value ...]
