<p>The problem is a simple MD5 generating command is just a
generator. It's not a verifier. It's also not a system for
gathering groups of MD5s, delivering them and evaluating them. A
good MD5 program will create a single text file with a list of the
files that have been checked, and also read that file and check it
against the MD5s of files after they have been transferred or
copied, to ensure they have not gotten altered or corrupted.</p>
