Basic instructions for using the md5sum command on a GNU/Linux system. This video covers using md5sum to get checksums of files as well as using it to create digests and check files against them.
This is the very first video i needed to go 100% volume. Still, very informative

I keep getting "No such file". But I'm looking at it on my 2nd monitor.

hi there, the command [echo "something" | md5sum] does not generate the correct md5 hash for 'something'. the right command is [echo -n "something" | md5sum] or [echo -n 'something' | md5sum], because the normal echo command passes a trailing newline after the word "something" to the md5sum command. read the manpage of "echo".
