For MD5 checksums personally I favour MD5Summer on Windows boxes.
Just watch the formatting of the checksum file if you're checking
downloads - sometimes it can be a bit picky about linebreaks. I think
this file might have been the latest preview release of Netbeans 6.5
(RC1). Looking in notepad though and putting the digest and filename
on one line worked a treat.
Sorry this went a little OT / top-posted.

How can I verify the checksums for a specific file?
I have a feeling you are not asking the question about ZFS hosted
files specifically.
If you downloaded a file, enter
cksum filename
To get the "CRC Check-Sum"
For more types of checksum, you can use
digest -a md5 filename
digest -l will list types of checksum that the "digest" command
knows about.

Oh, one other thing,
To check the cheksums of files you've downloaded to a MS Windows
system you need do download and install a "checksum checking"
utility, try twocows.com
