Out of curiousity, why md5? Hasn't it been cracked already? Would sha1 or 2sum be a better alternative? I'm a newbie to this so it's just a question.

Just to say thank you. Over the last few months I have been asking a lot of dumb questions about python (and qt on the qt mailing list) ... anyhow I finished my pet project, all 5500 lines of it. I previously explained what it was but to recap ... I developed a QT Python app that scans both configuration and data collected from remote security systems, up to 80,000 data attributes per site. After scanning it reports any inconsistencies or errors via a GUI giving them a severity level and an option to correct the error or acknowledge and enter override text. It generates a certificate PDF with an embedded md5 authentication string when the site has been audited. >From its analysis of the data it also generates both a detailed user reference PDF and a detailed engineer reference PDF specifically for the site. In my field this has never been done before - lots of very impressed people after several demonstrations. I released it under the GPL but apparently my terms of employment state that it belongs my employer ... who does not want it on sourceforge ... Where is it now ... its being integrated into a proprietary application as a groundbreaking audit/commissioning function (still running my Python code as a back end) and apparently I am due some kind of company reward ... My thoughts on my first Python QT project ... would have been nice if I could have given it to the community ... wonder what they will pay me ? ...
