PID of a Listener

[Sam Issa_1]

netstat showing that my system is listening on a specific port( not configured
in /etc/services ) for tcp trafic from anywhere.
How can I find the listener's PID ?

The only way I know how to accomplish this is with a utility called lsof (which
I think stands for list open files).

The command is: lsof -i :port-number

lsof, that's teh stuff I need ! Could you give me a link for downloading ?

I found it at ftp.sunset.se.
