Since I couldn't find your original post, I thought I'd reply to this one. I've seen a lot of suggestions on how to do what you want, which if I understand correctly is to do an md5sum on a lot of files, recursively. Well, there is a program that will do exactly that. It is called md5deep. I don't know if it is available through Debian, but it is available through Gentoo (source code), and should also be available here: http://md5deep.sourceforge.net You may have to use the -0 (zero) along with the -r option if your files have spaces or other odd characters in their names. Other than that it is very easy to use (you can pipe the output to a file, then use the regular md5sum program to check the sums). It also supports SHA1, Tiger, Whirlpool and a couple of others.
