NAME
p2pd-mdgen - block digest generation program
SYNOPSIS
p2pd-mdgen [-d] [-b blocksize] [-m digestname]
DESCRIPTION
The p2pd-mdgen tool generates block message digests for
the specified files. These files can be generated on-the-
fly as they are needed by the p2pd(8) server, but by using
p2pd-mdgen it will not be necessary for the server to
spend CPU resources on this task. Generated message digest
files with different block sizes and message digests will
have different names, making it possible to have multiple
block digest files for a single file.
EXAMPLES
$ p2pd-mdgen movie.mpg
Generate block digest file for movie.mpg, using the
default message digest and block size values.
$ p2pd-mdgen -m rmd160 -b 1048576 movie.mpg
Generate block digest file, with rmd160 message digests
and a block size of 1MB.
