[opensuse] md5sum database
Hi ListMates, Some time ago (10-15 years ago?) there used to be a Linux application that made a complete database of an installed system (basically it stored all the "system" files with their original file sizes, ownership, access permissions and md5sums plus other info in the db) and had programs to periodically check this database against an installed system and report on any changes and optionally to restore them to their original states. I forgot the name of the package and can't seem to find it via google! Does anyone on this list remember this package and if so to let me know where to find it. Thanks for any help. Best regards. Otto. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Tripwire?
Hi Florian, Not the one I was thinking of, but tripwire seems to be even better - does everything I need and then some - will download and try it out shortly. Thanks and best regards.
