Listing ports

[grittyminder]

How can I list all ports w/ additional information associated with each port?

 

[mrmovie]

is there a WMI class which represents ports?

 

[grittyminder]

I checked... no there is not (at least not any that I could find, and I searched very hard).

In a console window type netstat /?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks for the netstat suggestion. It's close, but netstat doesn't give me all the information I need. Okay, let me describe what I'm trying to do (and maybe someone can tell me if this is even possible). I'm trying to make a list of all the services running on a server and the ports on which each of the services is listening on. What I thought I might be able to do is use Win32_Service to enumerate the difference services and their associated process id, then find some way to enumerate through the ports, which should also have an associated process id. After that I just match the process id's to each other and, boom, I have a comprehensive list. Sounds easy, but I haven't been able to find the port information...

i have heard of people using MSCOMM in VB

 

[grittyminder]

MSCOMM, eh? Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to go check that out right now.

I thought MSCOMM was for serial ports.
