Integrity is verified by calculating a sha1 checksum of the file. It should work with any filesystem that supports stat(2) (POSIX, SVR4, BSD, etc.) so there's nothing hardware dependent in the code. > I liked the File::Integrity suggestion, but I'd want to know more. I may end up using that namespace. Cheers, -J --
