I also got round to rewriting the script to automatically check the md5 sum for you. #!/bin/bash # get the file wget -O /tmp/download.dat \ http://support.shaw.ca/troubleshooting/files/download.dat # md5sum it echo `md5sum /tmp/download.dat |cut -f1 -d " "` > \ /tmp/download.dat-actual # Write out the known md5sum to disk echo b792d74c36bacafd71f30c1a80077577 > /tmp/download.dat.md5 # Compare the sums, the response depends on cmp exit status if cmp /tmp/download.dat-actual /tmp/download.dat.md5 &> /dev/null then echo "File appears to have downloaded correctly" else echo "File is corrupt, please try again" fi #cleanup rm -f /tmp/download.dat* Brad Camroux wrote: > On Thu, Jun 01, 2006 at 05:31:51PM -0600, Gustin Johnson wrote: >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >> Hash: SHA1 >> >> I have this little script that I use to test Shaw (and it works >> reasonably well for other ISPs, especially if they peer with Big Pipe/Shaw): > > Mine comes in at > > 21:00:53 (505.06 KB/s) - `download.dat' saved [20989433/20989433] > > Not quite as good as Jesse's, but not too bad, either, I think. > > Brad > > _______________________________________________ > clug-talk mailing list > [email protected] > http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca > Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) > **Please remove these lines when replying -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEgBR5wRXgH3rKGfMRAoi+AJ0Rhozu898gcEnDiC+Ua1GIxXxWPQCeJDNk ZjlyHss6EefdUZKhxxU56l4= =W+s2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
