Hi, everybody,
using command "netstat -an" I can find out my active network connection, but can anybody tell me how to find the UNIX process that corespond to the network session?

inetd is the process that controls all internet protocols and servers.

the lsof advice is the stuff to follow.

inetd does not really control much of anything. it is there merely as a convenience - it is able to act as the parent for services written to use it and i think had its origins in the desire to keep the number of processes to a minimum. all inetd does is listen for a request on a registered service and spawn the server to handle that request (connection).

while it is true that a port assigned to an app being run as a child of inetd cannot be used for something else, saying that inetd "controls" protocols and such is a bit strong. one cannot for example shut-off all TCP through inetd for all practical purposes
