Have a look at http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi ... Next to each download 
link, you will find a "[MD5]" link (for instance, 
http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz.md5 for 
httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz). Contained within the linked file is the MD5 checksum.

The output of your MD5 checksum program for httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz should match 
that file (in this case the file contains
f72ffb176e2dc7b322be16508c09f63c  httpd-2.2.3.tar.gz
so the checksum is f72ffb176e2dc7b322be16508c09f63c).
