smc problem

[art15t]

Hi,

It looks like port 898 on my E450 is already in use by another process. This port is usually assigned to the smcserver at system boot time and therefore I cannot run the smc. Can someone tell me how to gather port usage information on my sparc? Is there a standard tool??

I seem to recall that you can examine the /proc processes (with a bit of scripting) for info about network interfaces but can't remember how.

Any help appreciated!

Do a netstat -l

Thanks for the suggestion comtech17 but that doesn't give anything on my E450 running 5.8. I was already aware of netstat -na but I then have to pick out all the open ports from the output. I've managed to get nmap running but it'll only scan TCP so any other suggestions welcome

Sorted it with an installation of Nessus and also got the benefits of a security scanner now!
