I just don't know how to use it. I downloaded this file onto my Win98 system, but it seemed about 200 MB shy of what it was listed as being on your site. So I will try another download tonight. How do I run checksum to verify it? First of all, this is the wrong list please post future questions to the 'questions@FreeBSD.org' mailing list. There should be an md5.exe program in the 'tools' directory of the FTP site. From the command prompt of your Microsoft system, just type 'md5 filename' and it will spit out a checksum that you can compare to the one given. Of course, if the file sizes aren't the same then the MD5 certainly won't be either. - Murray To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
