[SunHELP] Find out which program is listening on a port

[sunhelp at sunhelp.org]

just comparing lsof and netstat ....

lsof requires root permission whereas netstat can be run by any user. lsof
uses kvm_open which needs to open /dev/kvm for which root permission is
required.

I don't think is a native command for that.
The way I do it is I installed lsof from
sunfreeware.com and do

lsof -i -T |more

then you can see all the ports that are open and what
is running.
