kill the dead process which hold the service port

ust3 — Thu, 13 Sep 2007 05:53:16 GMT

In my database , we open port no. 5012 for remote connection , however , sometimes they hv many dead connection , so that it always full in connection ( as I only release 10 connection at the same time) , can advise , if I want to terminate the connction that over 15 minutes , what can i do ? is there any script may do that ? thx

/bin/netstat -na |grep 5012
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5012 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

p.s. the above netstat result found that port 5012 is in listen mode , it is in normal situation , but sometimes some dead process is still in "established" , so I would like to terminate this kind of dead process.

thx in advance.

Hello,
To find out which process has a port open you can use lsof with the -i option . e.g. lsof -i :5012

You will then need to analyse the results before killing things in case they are genuinely in use .

You can down load hp binaries from the HP porting and archiving centre if you do not have it .

Yes , I know -i may check the process ,

".. to analyse the results .." --> except use other tools , can I use any script to analyse and kill it ?

thx
