URGET : FTP SESSIONS

[Amit Dixit_2]

Hi,
We are having HP-UX B 11.11.
On our box we have webMethods Application runing in which we have a scheduler which connects to an ftp server and upload/download files from there.

How can I check how many ftp session are establishished from my box to the ftp server.

I want to list them on my HP BOX as I dont have access to FTP server.

Hi amit,
Yes it shows.
It show you something like this:

tcp 0 0 YourLocalBox RemoteServerName ESTABLISHED


Hope that helps,.

Amit actually read :

tcp 0 0 YourLocalBox RemoteServerName ESTABLISHED

as
tcp 0 0 YourLocalBox:scoketno RemoteServerName ESTABLISHED

So for multiple sessions you will different socket number.

Hope that helps.

You can do it with lsof. Run the following command on hp-ux system.

# lsof -i tcp@remote_server_name_or_ip:20-21

port 20 is for ftp data connection
port 21 is for ftp control connection
