Hi,

Out of curiosity what is the Linux and Solaris equivalents for doing this? I did a quick check under Linux and didn't see any similarly named programs, and the UNIX Rosetta Stone wasn't much help either. Thanks!

"sockstat" on later versions of FreeBSD will also show you the daemon
running on the port.
