[Rails] Running rake task automatically with rights of server?

I have a task that I would like to have run automatically throughout the
day without user intervention (guessing I would use a cron job to run a
rake task). It will be reading in an RSS feed and using that data to
update a database. The application is secure, using https and requiring
user certs. So how do you go about having an automated task run with
basically the rights of the server, as opposed to passing in user
credentials?
