Thanks for the tip. I hadn't seen that site before. I hit this page and then made 2.39. But, this installation didn't satisfy the requirements of my application. Perhaps it's the method I was using?

Hi guys,
I need to anonymise some data; Some of it in an Oracle database and some in text files. I'm using the 'digest' command on Solaris 10 OS and an Oracle function to encode the data in the database. However, as a test, when i try to encode the same string in the dataabse ans OS, I get... (4 Replies)
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:

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.

digest::md5
Digest::MD5(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Digest::MD5(3pm)NAME
Digest::MD5 - Perl interface to the MD5 Algorithm
SYNOPSIS
# Functional style
use Digest::MD5 qw(md5 md5_hex md5_base64);
$digest = md5($data);
$digest = md5_hex($data);
$digest = md5_base64($data);
# OO style
use Digest::MD5;
$ctx = Digest::MD5->new;
$ctx->add($data);
$ctx->addfile(*FILE);
$digest = $ctx->digest;
$digest = $ctx->hexdigest;
$digest = $ctx->b64digest;
DESCRIPTION
The "Digest::MD5" module allows you to use the RSA Data Security Inc. MD5 Message Digest algorithm from within Perl programs. The algo-
rithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.
The "Digest::MD5" module provide a procedural interface for simple use, as well as an object oriented interface that can handle messages of
arbitrary length and which can read files directly.
A binary digest will be 16 bytes long. A hex digest will be 32 characters long. A base64 digest will be 22 characters long.
FUNCTIONS
The following functions can be exported from the "Digest::MD5" module. No functions are exported by default.
md5($data,...)
This function will concatenate all arguments, calculate the MD5 digest of this "message", and return it in binary form.
md5_hex($data,...)
Same as md5(), but will return the digest in hexadecimal form.
md5_base64($data,...)
Same as md5(), but will return the digest as a base64 encoded string.
The base64 encoded string returned is not padded to be a multiple of 4 bytes long. If you want interoperability with other base64
encoded md5 digests you might want to append the string "==" to the result.
METHODS
The following methods are available:
$md5 = Digest::MD5->new
The constructor returns a new "Digest::MD5" object which encapsulate the state of the MD5 message-digest algorithm. You can add data
to the object and finally ask for the digest.
If called as an instance method (i.e. $md5->new) it will just reset the state the object to the state of a newly created object. No
new object is created in this case.
$md5->reset
This is just an alias for $md5->new.
$md5->add($data,...)
The $data provided as argument are appended to the message we calculate the digest for. The return value is the $md5 object itself.
$md5->addfile($io_handle)
The $io_handle is read until EOF and the content is appended to the message we calculate the digest for. The return value is the $md5
object itself.
In most cases you want to make sure that the $io_handle is set up to be in binmode().
$md5->digest
Return the binary digest for the message.
Note that the "digest" operation is effectively a destructive, read-once operation. Once it has been performed, the "Digest::MD5"
object is automatically "reset" and can be used to calculate another digest value.
$md5->hexdigest
Same as $md5->digest, but will return the digest in hexadecimal form.
$md5->b64digest
Same as $md5->digest, but will return the digest as a base64 encoded string.
The base64 encoded string returned is not padded to be a multiple of 4 bytes long. If you want interoperability with other base64
encoded md5 digests you might want to append the string "==" to the result.
EXAMPLES
The simplest way to use this library is to import the md5_hex() function (or one of its cousins):
use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex);
print "Digest is ", md5_hex("foobarbaz"), "
";
The above example would print out the message
Digest is 6df23dc03f9b54cc38a0fc1483df6e21
provided that the implementation is working correctly. The same checksum can also be calculated in OO style:
use Digest::MD5;
$md5 = Digest::MD5->new;
$md5->add('foo', 'bar');
$md5->add('baz');
$digest = $md5->hexdigest;
print "Digest is $digest
";
With OO style you can break the message arbitrary. This means that we are no longer limited to have space for the whole message in memory,
i.e. we can handle messages of any size.
This is useful when calculating checksum for files:
use Digest::MD5;
my $file = shift || "/etc/passwd";
open(FILE, $file) or die "Can't open '$file': $!";
binmode(FILE);
$md5 = Digest::MD5->new;
while (<FILE>) {
$md5->add($_);
}
close(FILE);
print $md5->b64digest, " $file
";
Or we can use the builtin addfile method for more efficient reading of the file:
use Digest::MD5;
my $file = shift || "/etc/passwd";
open(FILE, $file) or die "Can't open '$file': $!";
binmode(FILE);
print Digest::MD5->new->addfile(*FILE)->hexdigest, " $file
";
