1766.0. "md5 check for ping patch" by BACHUS::ROETS (Chris Roets) Tue Feb 04 1997 12:20

    hello Guys,
    
    In ftp.service.digital.com/public/ping/dfwu
    
    it is stated by the README to check the md5 string
    in order to verify the integrity of the data
    
    I found an MD5 program at
    
    http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~mabzug1/cs/md5/md5.html
    
    copiled it and linked it, but ..
    
    I get a different checksum
    
    MD5 (dfwu-v2.0-ping_DUv3.2cd.tar) = 7300612ccacfec56286bbcdafc601dd7
    
    	       MD5 (afwu-v2.0-ping_DUv3.2cd.tar)=
                                          8f3d456bafbb62115eadaed883807e7e
    		is stated in the README.
    I tried several times.
    
    is my program wrong ?
    is the checksum in the README wrong
    has my data been changed several time exactly the same ...
    
    Chris

1766.1	32 v 64 bit architecture	GALVIA::KEATING		`Wed Feb 05 1997 05:45`	9
	Chris, The reason you are getting a different MD5 checksum is because you are using code for a 32 bit machine. If you recompile on a 32 bit machine the checksums will match. Alternatively, try and locate code that has been updated to support 64 bits. Sarah
1766.2	Pointers to 64 bit MD5	GENIE::MUKHERJEE		`Wed Feb 05 1997 08:27`	6
	Anyone know where we can find a version for 64 bit? Sarah, maybe you can put a copy on morse with the patch? Thanks, Arjo
1766.3	Code ??? 64 bit	NETRIX::"[email protected]"	Chris Roets	`Thu Feb 06 1997 03:03`	6
	Hi Sarah, What do you mean with code, the image or the source ? I compiled on Digital Unix, this is 64 bit isn't it. Chris [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]
