[ILUG] md5sum for dos

[ILUG] md5sum for dos

	And for my next trick ! ! ! I've trawled the net and brought down
various windows ports/implementaions of this. They each seem to have unique
problems. Most only go as far as 32bit. Others output the correct md5
checksum but not in a valid linux context. More just create the MD5 checksum
but will not verify correctness of previously generated chksums. I found one
that was almost perfect but stdout would could not be redirected to a
txt/crc file, giving a "stack overflow" error, and some couldn't be run on
files unless they resided in the same directory as it. I'm at my wits end
here, I need to generate a crc file on windows containing md5 binary
checksums and filenames in such a way that 128 bit md5sum on a linux box and
an equivalent app in windows can verify file integrity. Short of recompiling
md5sum for dos any ideas ?

thanks,
steve
