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.
