Buildbot : how to manually launch a build?

We are using BuildBot (http://buildbot.net/) to build our C++ project. Is there any way to run the exact build commands from the command line that are executed when you hit the "force build" button on the web UI? I'm trying to debug a build problem that is present on our build server but not on our local machines, and don't want to spam the email list each time it fails.

Thank you, Sean

I assume buildbot sends an http request to the buildbot server asking it to build when you hit the force build button. So if you work out what it's senfing you can send the same thing using wget or python or whatever?

That may or may not do what you're trying to do? I guess there's a difference between running buildbot builds from the cmd line and duplicating a buildbot build without using buildbot.
