thank you for your answer, it works fine with quotes (i still very confused with quotes).
btw :-c option is refused on my unix box (a qnap NAS).
i used to get the file path from a text file but i never succeed to do the checksum after that (tried so many syntaxes):

where sums.txt contains lines like:

always return an "MD5 ERROR ves/file1.zip file doesn't exists"
note that prompted path is trunkated, i don't understand why probably an other quote problem...

I am a newbie in programming in Perl.
My problem is that this unix command is embedded in Perl but it gives an empty output. Here's the code:
$temp = `md5 "../Directory String/..." | awk {'print $NF'} > "../Directory/file.txt"`;
The output file should contain the md5 hash value of the... (2 Replies)
Hi.
I'm triyng to make a Bash Script that checks (recursively) the MD5 from all the files in a certain directory and compare them against some other check that should be already done and saved in a file.
I've reached to the point where i have the MD5 from the file and the MD5 that the script... (1 Reply)

Hello everyone,
I am looking to basically creating md5sum files for all iso files in a directory and archive the resulting md5 files into a single archive in that very same directory.
I worked out a clumsy solution such as:

Hi, I tried to write script, which would be able to generate MD5 sums into txt file.. But It won't work.. (I've been trying to fix that over 4 hours, but nothing helps)

I have about 1500 rows (encoded b64(b64(md5($pass))) algorythm) in a file.
I would like reverse the b64 into md5 hash format.
How could I do that from command line? So I need only the correct md5 hash formats.

md5sum
MD5SUM(1) User Commands MD5SUM(1)NAME
md5sum - compute and check MD5 message digest
SYNOPSIS
md5sum [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
Print or check MD5 (128-bit) checksums. With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
-b, --binary
read in binary mode
-c, --check
read MD5 sums from the FILEs and check them
-t, --text
read in text mode (default)
The following three options are useful only when verifying checksums:
--quiet
don't print OK for each successfully verified file
--status
don't output anything, status code shows success
-w, --warn
warn about improperly formatted checksum lines
--strict
with --check, exit non-zero for any invalid input
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
The sums are computed as described in RFC 1321. When checking, the input should be a former output of this program. The default mode is
to print a line with checksum, a character indicating type (`*' for binary, ` ' for text), and name for each FILE.
BUGS
The MD5 algorithm should not be used any more for security related purposes. Instead, better use an SHA-2 algorithm, implemented in the
programs sha224sum(1), sha256sum(1), sha384sum(1), sha512sum(1)AUTHOR
