How to use MD5 Hash to check the Integrity of Files?
Suppose you have a file called backup.tar on your server. Before you download, you need to generate MD5 hash for this
file on your server. To do so use the following command.
For UNIX:
md5sum backup.tar
When you hit ENTER you’ll see something as follows
e4d909c290d0fb1ca068ffaddf22cbd0
This is the MD5 hash for the file backup.tar. After you download this file onto your PC, you can cross check it’s integrity by
again re-generating MD5 hash for the downloaded file. If both the hash matches then it means that the file is perfect.
Otherwise it means that the file is corrupt. To generate the MD5 hash for the downloaded file on your Windows PC use
the following freeware tool.
