Objectives
Photos - Create checksum files once
- Only regenerate checksum if there are new files in a directory and no failed CRC
- If failed CRC then send report to sysop and do nothing.
- Store the CRC files in each directory and let these be copied to other backups.
- Backups - As part of the backups execute checksums on each directory and send results

Plan - For Photo Tree.
1 - Once a week run the master checksum and send failures and new file in a report
2 -After that has run check the output for any failed CRC - If any then DO NOTHING
3 - Check report and if there are new files then regenerate checksums using -r option
4 - Once a month - check report and if there are new files and no CRC then regenerate -rr
5 - Send report
