Finding the openfiles

[George Nikoloudis_1]

hello
Is it possible to tell me how it is possible to get the files that are open from the command

[Alan Casey]

fuser will show open files in a directory:

fuser -u .

A better tool is lsof, which you can download.

[Alan Casey]

can get lsof at:

http://hpux.asknet.de/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/lsof-4.55/

It doesn't require a reboot, it's just a binary.

I know about lsof but my unix is 64bit I have found only 32bit version. Can you tell me where I can download the 64 bit version of lsof, or how to compile the 32 bit verion in my system.

Hi,

Get lsof installed as everyone said.
It is a good tool to have. You can download 32bit binary version and start using it but for 64 bit OS you need to download source and compile it before using.

Hi,

Once you download lsof-4.55-ss-11.00.tar.gz uncompress it.

lsof-4.55/00.README.FIRST file has all the instructions for compiling and installing it for 64 bit.
It's pretty simple.

You can get the source code at:

Please can you assign some points,

thanks and good luck
Alan

I read the 00.README.First bbut there is no entry for 64 bit version compilation

Hi, This is the installtion steps from the README file

$ ./Configure
(Do the inventory step, as you prefer.)
(Do the customization step, as you prefer.)
$ make
$ ./lsof -h

To get a list of UNIX dialect abbreviations:

$ Configure -h

Please don't be impatient -- read the documentation first.

* Read the current distribution's details in 00DIST.

* If you want technical details, read 00DCACHE and 00PORTING.

* If you want to cross-configure, read 00XCONFIG.

* If you're having trouble, read 00FAQ. (Please read 00FAQ before
you send a bug report.)

* Lsof contributors may find their names in 00CREDITS. (Thanks, again.)

* Read the lsof.man page file. Its nroff source is in lsof.8.

* Consider subscribing to the lsof-l mailing list -- read 00LSOF-L
for details.
