Almost every time I split a large file >1G into say 200k chunks, then ftp it to a server and then:
cat 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 > completefile ; md5sum -c completefile if fails. Checking the split files in turn I often find 1 or two chunks that fail on their own md5 checks. Despite that the concatenated file often works (e.g. if it is a video file it'll play alright). Can you explain this? Should I be using a different check to verify the integrity of the ftp'd file? -- Regards, Mick
