Turgay,

StateAllowed() can always be overridden to serve your own needs.  Also 
check out ControllerRun, which is a command line program that Mike N. made 
to tie in  cron with the healthcheck controller.

Finally, although it's less efficient, if you share the password secret 
between the client and the server, you can always add cookies to your 
client request which then logs you in with each controller 
invocation.  It's not as efficient, but it isn't too bad either.  That's 
what I did to do Cactus test cases with Expresso.

HTH!
