Question : File integrity check software: windows - unix

Hi x-perts,

I need to compare Md5 sum on a local PC (windows) and a remote server (Centos). Are there any applications for that? I just don't want to check it and compare manually file-by-file

Please advise

Answer : File integrity check software: windows - unix

Hi, you can use "rsync", in test mode (--dry-run), to build a list of the files that have differing MD5 checksums, or are missing, between a local and remote directory. It will also recurse into sub-directories, unless you tell it otherwise.

It a Unix tool, for which there are Windows ports, but personally I prefer running the unix version, under Cygwin, on Windows.
