          Useful fields are o(wner), g(roup), m(ode).
          There is no parsing of the specified fields, so it is possible  to  include
         additional uals options, e.g., -y "E -e%Y%M%D".

          If other fields are not specified with -y only the filenames are compared.

  -s
          Use root (sudo).

  +s
          Use sdiff without -s.

EXAMPLES

  Compare current directoy on dispatch with ogman:

   dispatch: cksumnode -d $PWD -2 ogman

   # dispatch:/usr/local/ids/sbin |  # ogman:/usr/local/ids/sbin
   23152 Ids.RSH                  <
   62459 Ids.Remote               <
   04780 k5getpol.ksh             |  24417 k5login_check.ksh
   12822 k5getprinc.ksh           <
   60626 k5login_check.ksh        <

  Above shows extra files on dispatch and mis-matched sum on k5login_check.ksh.

  --

  Compare curent directory on ogman with dispatch and boot:

   ogman: cksumnode -2 "dispatch boot"

   # ogman:/usr/local/pkg/push/bin | # dispatch:/usr/local/pkg/push/bin

   # ogman:/usr/local/pkg/push/bin | # boot:/usr/local/pkg/push/bin

  Above shows all files are idenical for all three hosts.

  --

  Compare group and modify date betwwen ogman and dispatch:

   ogman: cksumnode -r -y "gE -e%Y%m%d" -2 dispatch

   # ogman:/usr/local/push/bin     | # dispatch:/usr/local/pkg/push/bin
   crayman 20081018 chk_sanity.ksh | sunman 20081018 chk_sanity.ksh
   crayman 20081115 cmp_sanity.ksh | sunman 20081115 cmp_sanity.ksh
   crayman 20080514 edwords        | sunman 20080514 edwords
   crayman 20080429 mush           | sunman 20080514 mush
   crayman 20081017 push           | sunman 20081003 push
   crayman 19990525 push_unset     | sunman 19990525 push_unset

  Above shows different groups and/or modifiy dates.
