It's the same as your original problem: different end-of-line markers

Try this instead:
	echo -n "1122" | openssl dgst -md5

Thanks people,

Yeah I think the end of line was the key. After reading your posts I
realised that I needed this:
echo "mytext" | openssl dgst -md5

Anyway, I don't know why I got different hashes:

Using openssl:
 echo "1122" | openssl dgst -md5
 01ebeaafc334e503f4acc94a18df9fa5

and using MySQL:
 SELECT md5("1122");
