The Data Library in my department has many data files on tape and CD-R, with
the checksums from /bin/cksum (for data integrity purposes) faithfully
recorded.
We're getting more and more users wanting to read these files under Linux, but
/bin/cksum seems to be different than the GNU cksum command.
Does anyone have any suggestions for replicating the output from Tru64's cksum
command under Linux? We'd rather avoid having to re-checksum all the files
with either GNU's cksum or md5sum (either of which seems to be more portable
than Tru64's cksum).
