I have been looking for a command to generate MD5 checksum values on AIX 4 years ago. There was a need then to get the checksum values to compare if the files were the same. Then, I used the sum command.
Today, I found this command, csum. With this command, you can generate an MD5 or a SHA1 checksum.
The syntax is as below:
csum -h MD5 [filename]
Example:
csum -hMD5 .profile
