	I'm in the process of learning unix through the use of MINIX.
I have a simple question regarding crc's; I'm running P-H v1.3 and
I'm the process to update to v1.5. In postings by Andy there is a listing
of crcs for v1.3, v1.4 and v1.5, he recomends that crcs for v1.3 should be
checked, now.... the only command that I found in Minix to checksum a file
is "sum" ,is there any other command???? as and example I tried to check
file utmp.h with sum and I get the value of 22540 and in the listing the
value is 13220. Non of the values that I get from my files using sum, match
the listings, at least the size of the files match, for the example, the size
utmp.h is 217. Could someone help me in getting the correct crcs from my files
or tell me what I'm doing wrong............
