Linklint is an Open Source Perl program that checks local and remote HTML links. Example:

linklint -http -host my.host.com -limit 1000 -doc dir /@

-http check site via HTTP requests (HTTP site check)
-host my.host.com check the my.host.com site
-limit 1000 bump up the file limit from 500 to 1000
-doc doc put all output files in the dir/ subdirectory
 /@ check entire site

But checking links is often more complicated than this. Even if you don't end up using Linklint, you will get a better understanding and appreciation of link checking if you read this documentation. Please read all of the documentation.
