As long as you need MD5 hashes, and your system has that program, then that's great. I repeat, however, that it is essential to create the correct type of hash for your target systems. MD5 used to be near-universal for Linux, but newer releases tend to prefer other hashes, and other types of machines may have even more differing requirements.
