Hi,
I've got nph_verify.cgi working from a cron job every 4 days with "--check_from 4" set - will this check all links that have not been checked in the past 4 days?
I'm trying to work out a compromise between the length of time verify is running (number of links to check) and how often links should, in practice, be checked.
I'm now thinking that 4 days is too often, and maybe I should just check every 30 days or so, but would that queue up a larger amount of links per run and make the process a heavier one?
Also, are there other ways I could use nph_verify, such as only checking new links, or checking links in an ordered series?
I'd appreciate it if someone could enlighten me about nph_verify and how they manage it as I'd like to keep links current, but also make sure I'm not over doing it
Many thanks.
All the best
Shaun
