HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHAT PORTS ARE OPEN 1

[bgdak]

I am trying to find out the open ports I have and what function they are related to?

Try looking at /etc/services. Any entries which are not hashed (#) are essentially open for business. HTH.

Try using nmap to scan for open ports. Also rpcinfo is a useful command. Nessus can generate an html report about the open ports on the system and give information on what typically runs on each of the ports.

Try running the command "lssrc -a | grep active" to show running services.
The command "grep -v "^#" /etc/inetd.conf" will show the running ports.

The other thing may be to make use of the netstat command - particularly...

netstat -a

...which shows a list of ports, what they are used for and what status they are in.

Hope it helps.
