No, really. Run netstat -tlnp as root and paste output. Gary Golden On 12/14/2010 02:08 AM, Kevin O'Gorman wrote: Eeek!!

It lists processes for unix-domain sockets whether I'm root or not, but does not show them for inet-domain at all. I'm using netstat -l or netstat -ln. Is there some other option I need?
