Wrong MD5 Calculations #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a new profile
2. MD5 hashing for UID does not match md5sum command

The same function is used to verify anon posted data, will always cause failures

To properly check against linux md5sum, the command should be:
echo -n "id" | md5sum

The "-n" means NO NEW LINE, which caused the mismatching problem
