Thank you
By the way, the signature is the MD5 hash of the string
".IsCacheDirectory" and it's SPECIFICALLY looked for by tar:
[snip of great info]
As a bonus question; do you know why md5sum is showing a different
value, as in...
echo ".IsCacheDirectory" | md5sum -
6929f806dd11bc634be8205d11af24d6 -
I used "John the Ripper" to prove that 8a477f597d28d172789f06886806bc55
really *is* the hash of .IsCacheDirectory but I am not clear on what
md5sum is giving me.
Has to do with end-of-line stuff. Try:
[root@prophead tmp]# printf "%s" ".IsCacheDirectory" | md5sum
8a477f597d28d172789f06886806bc55 -
(the "-" at the end is md5sum telling me that it was looking at stdin).
Additional:
[root@prophead tmp]# echo -n ".IsCacheDirectory" | md5sum
8a477f597d28d172789f06886806bc55 -
("echo -n" means "don't include the newline")
