Cksum dependencies

Hi,

On what factors does the cksum depend.

If i build 2 machines exactly the same, then can i get the checksum of 2 compiled files same.

Thanks

The cksum utility prints the CRC algorithm specified by the POSIX standard.

Not if things like

char built_on[]=__DATE__;

are in the source.

Not much conversant with this.

On which factors does this depend.

We don't have anything that depends on time.
