6.0 VALIDATING THIS SOFTWARE
If you received this software from any source other than
McAfee's Internet site, BBS, or CD-ROM, we strongly
suggest you use the Validate software described
below to make sure this copy is virus-free.
* LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR VALIDATE Version 2.0.1 *
VALIDATE Version 2.0.1
Copyright 1994-1997 by McAfee, Inc.
All Rights Reserved.
McAfee Associates, Inc. assumes no responsibility for
damages or lost data caused by the use or misuse of
this program, including if used in accordance with the
program documentation. Use of Validate means you comply
with this Agreement.
* QUICK COMMAND REFERENCE GUIDE *
Before you install a McAfee product that you've downloaded
from an online service, you'll want to verify that the files
you downloaded are exactly the same as when we posted them
online. We recommend you perform this task for maximum
anti-virus protection. Read the following paragraphs to
learn how to validate your file.
Included in the files you downloaded is the Validate program
(version 2.0.1). Validate is a file-authentication program
that you can use to check program files for signs of
tampering. Validate uses two methods of generating Cyclic
Redundancy Checks (CRCs), then displays the information so you
can compare these statistics against the "known value" for the
program files. The dual CRC checking provides a high degree
of security. The known value you use for validation is usually
provided by the author of the program, or you may receive it
from a trusted information database. You can find the statistics
for this McAfee product in the file PACKING.LST.
To confirm that a program file has not been tampered with,
run the Validate program and record the validation data
produced. Compare this data against the file statistics
the program author has specified. If the information matches,
most likely the program has not been modified since the files
were placed online.
To run Validate, enter the following command:
VALIDATE <pathspec>
where <pathspec> is the name of a directory and file. The
wildcard characters * and ? can be used when specifying
<pathspec>.
The Validate program displays the following information:
<name of directory>
name of file (starting at row 1)
extension of file (starting at row 10)
size of file (starting at row 15)
date of file (starting at row 25)
time of file (starting at row 35)
check method 1 (starting at row 44)
check method 2 (starting at row 51)
