I think the main reason why I need it is:
I'm copying some big iso files from a network storage appliance that
doesn't have any console. The files are not accompanied by md5sum
file. I access it using "windows share" protocol from Nautilus. Then I
copy the files to a samba shares. In Samba host, of course I can use
md5sum CLI. But how to compare it on the appliance's side? To make
sure that the files are not corrupted during copy.
