Hello,
The 'netstat -an' command will show me that processes are using certain
network ports. E.g. 'netstat -an | grep 53' will show me that a DNS name
server is running:
127.0.0.1.53 Idle
192.168.177.1.53 Idle
192.168.177.1.53 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
But how can I find out the process (executable) pathname or its PID?
I am trying to write something in a shell script, which will work for
standard Solaris 9 or 10 systems. I know that 'lsof' can do this, but
that is not part of a standard Solaris system (i.e. just using the
software on Sun's installation CD's/DVD). I am looking either for
something like the netstat '-p' option on Linux systems, or if there is
some way of digging the information out of /proc (although that may mean
going through all the processes in /proc). Perhaps using one of
the /proc tools/commands.
A first look at this problem, and I don't actually think it can be done.
I just want to make sure by asking you all. I have read the FAQ, and I
know it asks this very question, but the answer given there is to use
'lsof'. I want to know if there is another way.
Thanks,
John.
