What process is listening on a certain port on Solaris? / How to find out which process listens on certain port on Solaris?

Scenario: I’m looking for PID for which PORT 2817 is using here in Solaris 11.

-bash-3.2# netstat -an | grep 2817
*.2817 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
10.0.50.81.2817 10.0.50.81.37374 49152 0 49152 0 CLOSE_WAIT
10.0.50.81.2817 10.0.50.81.35510 49152 0 49152 0 CLOSE_WAIT
10.0.50.81.2817 10.0.50.81.34478 49152 0 49152 0 CLOSE_WAIT

Here is a script, I found somewhere which actually works. This script worked to find PID from port number, If lsof command/utility is not available with server.

Save this script as Port_check.sh and grant execute permissions using chmod 777 to this script.

————————————————————————————-

#!/bin/ksh

line=’———————————————‘
pids=$(/usr/bin/ps -ef | sed 1d | awk ‘{print $2}’)

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
read ans?”Enter port you would like to know pid for: ”
else
ans=$1
fi

for f in $pids
do
/usr/proc/bin/pfiles $f 2>/dev/null | /usr/xpg4/bin/grep -q “port: $ans”
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo $line
echo “Port: $ans is being used by PID:\c”
/usr/bin/ps -ef -o pid -o args | egrep -v “grep|pfiles” | grep $f
fi
done
exit 0

————————————————————————————-
Now the syntax of using this script is
./Port_check.sh <port number>

For example, to find which process is using TCP port 2817,

-bash-3.2# ./Port_check.sh 2817
———————————————
Port: 2817 is being used by PID:26222 /data01/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/java_1.7_64/bin/sparcv9/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnos

So, Here is PID 26222 using port 2817.

Thanks…
