Does lsof support 64 bit os?
I have installed the lsof 4.67, but while I run the lsof, the error message as below,
# ./lsof
lsof: FATAL: lsof was built for a 32 bit kernel, but this
is a 64 bit kernel.

hi,

NB. List open files (remember in unix everything is a file)

Here is some simple uses:
To see all open files of a paricular process (via its pid):

# lsof -p

To see all open files associated with a command:

# lsof -c cron

...or by a logon name:

# lsof -u
# lsof -u

...or what process is using a TCP socket:

# lsof -i tcp:161
# lsof -i udp:161

Also
a. suppose a process has a port which is hanging,
you can grep on the port no.,
know which process owned that port no.,
kill that process to free that port. Generally helpful in web applications.
b. when you want to find out whos creating the /tmp/log that is building rappidly,
c. when you want to unmount a filesystem but it's busy, find out who's using it.

hope this helps!

Hi

Download the source code
lsof-4.64-ss-11.00.tar.gz
uncompress and untar it.

go to lsof-4.64 directory and run ./configure hpux
it will ask few questions keep answering and (don't do inventory check) select default for ease.

then run "make" this process will create a file called lsof in the same directory.
Use this file it will definately work.

I tried this on 64 bit kernel on 11.11

Majeed

Although it would be preferable for you to get the source and compile locally, I have attached a 64 bit lsof binary if you would prefer that.
