web site link checkerCreated by Scott Crevier (St. Norbert College) on September 12, 2005
I manage the technical aspects of our web site, and I've been wanting to setup a good, reliable link checker for some time. So I just implemented Linklint last week. It's a freebie written in Perl, and it works great. It's fast too! It's very configurable, so it took a bit of effort to set it up. But now it's in a cron job, creating daily reports by 8:00am.
Actually, one of my favorite link checkers has always been Xenu. That one is super fast and very accurate. But it only runs manually as a Windows program. There's no way to schedule it, and it won't run on my Linux server. But I still use it if I need to run a quick and dirty report on a particular web page.

I like Xenu too: it's fast and light, the way utilities should be...
