Sorry that the file sizes and MD5 values are wrong in the example. They do change. Please check the file size with "ls -l" and the MD5 value with "openssl md5". Unfortunately, "openssl md5" does not support starting at a different file offset. Please use the following command to check your result instead: ~csci551b/bin/filemd5 [-o offset] [file] -- Bill Cheng // bill.cheng@usc.edu
