MD5 problems

Wondering if there's any problems with JDK1.4 / tomcat's MD5 digest? I'm
not getting any exceptions, but I get gobbeldegook instead of and MD5
digest....  Here's a code snippet - am I doing anything wrong?

	String newvalue = "some text";

	MessageDigest md;

	try {
		md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
	} catch (Exception e) {
		this.password = "CaCrMeDi!";//Can't create
		return;
	}

	md.update(newvalue.getBytes());
	md.digest();
	String tmp = md.toString();


Cheers,
-Josh

Ack, replace 

tmp = md.toString();

with 

tmp = new String(md.getBytes());


that's the code I'm using... otherwise i get "MD5 object from SUN" or
some such :)
