Nice alister - my perl skills are weak!

Can that beauty be enhanced to append the md5sum to the input file as a new field?

As I said, you will probably need to install the openssh-dev library or whatever your distribution happens to call it. That's why md5.h is missing, because it's not installed.

Do you mind sharing just the header file?

I doubt you will get much out of the .h file without the library (.so files) on your system, as the .h file just defines the functions exported from the library.

Anything compiled will not link without the library.

I agree, but I just wanted to give it a shot with the compilers I have Smilie

I would be astonished if Redhat didn't come with openssl...

But he doesn't need "a header file" -- he needs openssl's header files, a bunch of them, and the right ones for his version of openssl, correctly installed and configured in the correct places.

OK well perhaps this may compile for him then:

Code:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

typedef struct MD5state_st
 {
 unsigned int A,B,C,D;
 unsigned int Nl,Nh;
 unsigned int data[(64/4)];
 unsigned int num;
 } MD5_CTX;
int MD5_Init(MD5_CTX *c);
int MD5_Update(MD5_CTX *c, const void *data, size_t len);
int MD5_Final(unsigned char *md, MD5_CTX *c);

int main()
{
        int n;
        MD5_CTX c;
        unsigned char buf[1024], out[16];
        while(fgets(buf, 1024, stdin))
        {
                MD5_Init(&c);
                MD5_Update(&c, buf, strlen(buf)-1);
                MD5_Final(out, &c);
                for(n=0; n<16; n++)
                        printf("%02x", out[n]);
                fputs("\n",stdout);
        }
        return(0);
}

To link you will probably need -lssl -lcyrpto
