socket

[Bhoyet Orillo]

Is there a way of knowing which process
opened a certain socket connection in the
network connection table?

There is - you need to use a tool called lsof. you can download from;

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/lsof-4.64/

Then when installed run lsof -i | grep and you will see the process.

[Rainer von Bongartz]

lsof is the tool you might use.

if not on your system download from software.hp.com

yes, get the free command utility "lsof", and you can for instanse issue lsof -i.

Use 'man listen'.
Hopefully you know C-programming.
