The AirTunes wiki gives bad advice to verify the key with "sha1sum privkey.txt". The text representation can vary greatly in ways that affect the SHA1 digest of the text file but do not affect the underlying key (e.g. extra spaces at the end of the line, DOS-vs-Unix linefeeds, and various ASN1 encoding issues).<br>
<br>
A much better way is to verify the SHA1 digest of the DER encoding of the key:<br>
<br>
$ openssl rsa -in privkey.txt -outform der | sha1sum<br>
writing RSA key<br>
