Update md5 checksums post upcp?

Would there be harm is automatically updating the md5 check sums after the upcp runs? Since I could not find a specific parameter/switch on LFD to perform this operation, perhaps something like this could be added to the /scripts/postupcp file...

Code: Select all

md5sum /usr/bin/* /usr/sbin/* /bin/* /sbin/* /usr/local/bin/* /usr/local/sbin/* /etc/init.d/* /etc/xinetd.d/* /etc/rc.local > /etc/csf/csf.tempint
Obviously the other place this would need to be handled is in the post OS level updates (post yum, etc)... But perhaps adding a parameter/switch to LFD to force recalculate the md5 checksums would allow a bit of flexibility...

Just a thought and thanx for a great product!

That should work if you want to do that.
