Monitoring Port Activity

Scott Buckingham — Thu, 24 Jan 2002 17:52:50 GMT

Does anyone know of a network port activity tool for Unix systems? We are trying to see what processes are utilizing a particular port and whether or not another process is also using that port.

Thank you! I have passed this information on and I will assign points after I hear how it goes (most likely 10's all around)! Stay tuned.

I've run into a problem trying to get the utility. Is this a freebie that I can download or do I have to jump through a couple hoops to get to it?

To install it, after downloading it, gunzip it, then use swinstall (interactively).

For SUN I use:
