Using lmcksum
This utility performs a checksum of a license file. This is useful to verify
data entry errors in your license file. lmcksum prints a line-by-line
checksum for the file as well as an overall file checksum. lmcksum takes
the -k switch to force the encryption key checksum to be case-sensitive.
lmcksum ignores all fields that do not enter into the encryption key
computation. Therefore, the SERVER name and port number, as well as
the DAEMON pathname and options file names are not checksummed.
In addition, lmcksum will treat non-case-sensitive fields correctly (in
general, lmcksum is not case-sensitive).
lmcksum takes an optional DAEMON name; if specified, only license file
lines for the selected DAEMON are used to compute the checksums.
By default, lmcksum operates on license.dat in the current directory.
Specify -c license_file if you want to checksum another license file.
