I'm still working on this, just wanted to make sure everything is working before i send the final PR.

@winters0x64 Thank you for your update

[winters0x64]

@bhagyashree980 , appreciate you looking into this, I was occupied with implementing some security checks, that's why this got delayed. If you want to contribute you can try to improve the nettacker engine part, I'll be looking at that after this maybe we can collaborate on that.

Hi @winters0x64 ,
Thank you for the update and for sharing the context. I understand how implementing security checks can take priority. I appreciate the suggestion to look into improving the Nettacker engine part—I'll start exploring it right away.

@vishakha-mali , I appreciate your interest in the issue but I'm still resolving this issue with @arkid15r , my PR is almost complete, just testing all the edge cases that might arise due to cross platform compatibility issues.

@winters0x64 are you planning to migrate the dockerfile to also work on windows or only the paths? Cause I had tried running this on my windows machine a few days back and with a some changes it works well, so lemme know what you're planning and we can work on this together?
