NAME

       genhash - md5 hash generation tool for remote web pages

SYNOPSIS

       genhash [options] [-s server-address] [-p port] [-u url]

DESCRIPTION

       genhash  is a tool used for generating md5sum hashes of remote web pages.  genhash can use
       HTTP or HTTPS to connect to the web page.  The output by this utility  includes  the  HTTP
       header,  page  data,  and the md5sum of the data.  This md5sum can then be used within the
       keepalived(8) program, for monitoring HTTP and HTTPS services.
