What is the lmchksum utility and how do I use it ?
Top The lmcksum program will perform a checksum of a license file. This is useful to verify data entry errors at your location. lmcksum will print a line-by-line checksum for the file as well as an overall file checksum. lmcksum takes the ‘-k’ switch to force the encryption key checksum to be case-sensitive. lmcksum will ignore all fields that do not enter into the encryption key computation; thus the server node name and port number, as well as the daemon pathname and options file names are not checksummed. In addition, lmcksum will treat non-case sensitive fields correctly (in general, lmcksum is not case-sensitive). lmcksum takes an optional daemon name; if specified, only license file lines for the selected daemon are used to compute the checksums. For FEATURE lines that contain ck=nnn, lmcksum prints simply OK or BAD. Usage is: lmcksum [-c license_file] -c license_file: path to the file to checksum. By default lmcksum uses ‘license.
