NAME

6       fipshmac - create FIPS-140-2 validation checksum files
7

SYNTAX

9       fipshmac [-d <directory>] file1 [file2 ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       fipshmac will create FIPS-140-2 checksum files for all the filenames
13       specified. If the -d option is not specified, checksum files will be
14       written in the same directory as the file being checksummed. It will
15       prepend a '.' and append '.hmac' to the original file name. When a
16       directory is specified with the -d option, the '.' will not be
17       prepended and the files are stored into the directory.
18
19       If invoked correctly the fipshmac command will not print anything to
20       the standard output or error. Otherwise it will print an error message
21       to stderr.
22
23       The -s option allows to specify the suffix of the hmac file names. The
24       default value .hmac is used when this option is not specified.
