for example:
millions of xhtml files that start off
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>
and similar variants. If you access the dtd off the w3c server more
than a couple of times your IP address will be automatically blocked and
future requests will get an access denied http header.
If you don't want to edit every incoming file you need to redirect that
request to a local copy of the dtd, catalogues provide one way of doing
that.
xhtml is just one example, same if you process docbook, or various
microsoft project index files or any other format with a standardised
location for dtd (or schema or whatever) you need to redirect requests
from the standard location to your local copy of the resource.
