If yes, you will need the curl based linkchecker from teh contributions. -paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans

I changed the timeout value for the URL checking. 1 Open the linkcheck.php file in the cronjobs folder. 2 Find the line: $fp = @fopen( $url, "r"); 3 Put this line before it: stream_set_timeout($fp, 15); The 15 is for a fifteen second timeout. It can be increased or decreased, of course. Loyd
