Is there an md5 command in Solaris 11

User12612738-OracleOct 22 2014 — edited Oct 22 2014

Hi All,

We have a customer looking for the executable 'md5' command in Solaris11.  Cust has several scripts that has the md5 command hardcoded in their scripts, and would like to use the exact 'md5' command.  I inform them about the built-in /usr/bin/md5sum and /usr/bin/digest checksum utility in Solaris, but they're still looking for the md5 command cause it will be difficult for them to rewrite multple scripts, and also they mentioned that the output of digest is different from the md5 command output.

Is there an md5 command available for Solaris 11?  is there an optional package that contains the md5 executable? Pls help. thanks.
