RE: tool for generating MD5 hash of a file (MS)

[Jonathan Loh <kj6loh () yahoo com>]

I've used fsum, a free program, from <a
href="http://www.slavasoft.com";>slavasoft</a> for a while.  It's a command line
utility.  It can check sums against a file containing checksums.  It supports
12 different checksum algorithms, MD2, MD4, MD5, etc....  But it defaults to
MD5 checksums.
