aide --update --limit /etc

Please note that due to mmap issues, aide cannot be terminated with SIGTERM. Use SIGKILL to terminate.
The checksums in the database and in the output are by default base64 encoded (see also report_base16 option). To decode them you can use the following shell command:
echo <encoded_checksum> | base64 -d | hexdump -v -e '32/1 "%02x" "\n"'
