Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers read a .bin through terminal and output a checksum?

Old 07-06-2009
Ok, so i did all of that, but i get a checksum with only digits in it, and its not binary. I already know what the checksum should be, but for some reason, this line is not producing it. Does this command actually take the file path as an input, read the binary on it, and output the computed checksum? thanks again for your help.

Are there any other 32 bit checksums out there that may possibly use different algorithms to determine a checksum? i cant seem to find any online.
