ProxyTrack - HTTrack Website Copier

ProxyTrack - HTTrack Website Copier

ProxyTrack, is a standalone project aimed to help web archivists to easily build caches based on websites downloaded by httrack. It can also be used by system administrators to create "simulated" online connections in offline environments (without any Internet connection), for example using Linux Kernel TCP transparent proxy features.

Current ProxyTrack Features include:
HTTP 1.1 (RFC2616) proxy, transparent proxy compatible
ICPv2 (RFC2186) requests, for squid-style cache architectures
Aggregation of multiple httrack caches (.zip or .dat/.ndx formats)
WebDAV (RFC2518) small server to browse aggregated indexes
Standalone server, with minimal depencies (no link to httrack or libhttrack), allowing to run it on very small systems (even 486-style servers running Linux)
