Every time we build an executable the date and time are put into the file, I need to run checksum on just the working lines.(IE, no header files)

I am using a HP-UX server any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Is cksum the right command to calculate the crc32 checksum value? I tried it for a number of files now and every time the results dont match. So there is nothing wrong with the file. Also, cksum gives me an all numerical value while crc32 is alpha numeric. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks (9 Replies)
