It seems to work AFAIKS, when disabling default robots.txt rules (please setup
lower transfer limits, however, such as a low bandwidth limit of 5KB/s)

You may want to use scan rules, however, to limit the scope of the mirror

Beware, this site might be huge. My advise is to setup "low" bandwidth limit
(5KB/s) and take the time to mirror everything, not to clobber the server's
bandwidth.
