List of servers

How can I see what servers are running on my system, and on which port?

 

You could either use nmap on yourself or use the netstat command.

 

I'd run

Code:

netstat -tap

It will show a list with lines like this:

Code:

tcp        0      0 *:mysql                 *:*                     LISTEN      17735/mysqld

where mysql is the port. If you want to know the number of the port, run

Code:

grep mysql /etc/services

It'll show

Code:

mysql           3306/tcp                        # MySQL
mysql           3306/udp                        # MySQL

so you know the MySQL port is 3306.
