Find Out What Ports Are Listening / Open On My Linux & FreeBSD Server
netstat command to find open ports
The syntax is:
# netstat —listen
OR
# netstat -l
Sample outputs from my Debian 8.x Linux server:
To display open ports and established TCP connections, enter:
$ netstat -vatn
To display only open UDP ports try the following command:
$ netstat -vaun
If you want to see FQDN (full dns hostname), try removing the -n flag:
$ netstat -vat
FreeBSD/OS X Unix user try the following command:
$ netstat -na | grep -i LISTEN
$ netstat -f inet -na | grep -i LISTEN

I used lsof command in freebsd 5 i am not getting any output for checking tcp/udp ports which are listening or open on my server
Yes, you must be root and use sockstat command.
What is the equivalent port for com9 on linux?How do i find out com port equivalents in linux?Thanks
on FreeBSD you can also use sockstat to list open sockets
correction :- should be
netstat -l, –listening :- to get list the listening sockets.
lsof -i (to get an idea of ports out there)
netstat -a | grep
example: netstat -a | grep 4449
If nothing is returned like below the port is free
$ netstat -a | grep 4449
$
My name is Jacob and I’m running a hosting business. I have 2 dedicated servers at the moment and they’re both Linux Debian 6.0. I have some troubles with my dedicated IP’s. Some server on my dedicated server is having the port 0000 or 0. It takes all the dedicated IP’s and I don’t know how to find where its located or how to close it. I know the pid and I can see it’s running some where but the location I cant see. Please help me. It’s a big problem I’ve been trying to figure out.
there are some command to find out the all open port…bt there have any command to find out all the port,which are listing or not?that means have any command to show list of all ports.
Try this:
open tcp, udp, listening, program, numeric, ipv4
netstat -tulpn4
how do i find out what ports are listeningopen/off on my linuxfreebsd server?how do i find the port,which are not listening.i just want to see list of all port.

Linux all listened ports
Last updated on: 2018-12-21
Authored by: Rackspace Support
If you’re troubleshooting a service that you know is running normally, the next step is to ensure it’s listening on the correct network port.
The netstat command shows the services listening to ports on a Linux server and the details of any connections currently made to them. The connection details to consider during basic network daemon troubleshooting are the addresses that the daemon is listening on (including the port number), the daemon’s process identifier (PID), and the program name.
You need to run netstat on the server that is running the service. Netstat is not affected by your firewall configuration.
Note: You can also use the lsof and ss commands to check ports. Many of the command flags contained in this article are the same when you run the lsof and ss commands. However, the output returned when you use these commands might not resemble the output of the netstat tool. For more information about both commands, see the lsof and ss command manuals.
Check ports
To list the TCP ports that are being listened on, and the name of each listener’s daemon and its PID, run the following command:
The following example shows the output for three common programs that are listening on three different sockets.
Filter the list
If the list of listening daemons is long, you can use grep to filter it. For example, to filter out everything except the default web server port 80 , run the following command:
Analyze the results
Common outcomes include the following results:
- Nothing is listening on the port. Check the service configuration files, and then restart the service.
- The correct service is listening on the correct port. In this case you need to test the service more thoroughly. Skip to the article on testing the listening service for response using netcat.
- Something other than the expected service appears to be listening on the port.
Note: A super-server, such as xinetd, might be listening on the port. Check your xinetd configuration to ensure that this behavior is acceptable.
If something else is listening on the port, you can disable the program by running sudo service httpd stop , or change its configuration so that it no longer listens on the port. When netstat shows the port is free, enable the correct service (for example sudo service vsftpd start ).
If you make any changes because the incorrect service is listening, run the netstat command again. If netstat doesn’t show the program listening on the correct port, you need to address its configuration before you go any further.
If you make changes at this point, be sure to test your setup to verify that you have resolved your issue.
If using the netstat did not resolve your port issues, continue to test connections to the service by using the netcat command.

Linux Find Out Which Process Is Listening Upon a Port
Linux Find Out Which Process Is Listening Upon a Port
You can the following programs to find out about port numbers and its associated process:
- netstat command or ss command – a command-line tool that displays network connections, routing tables, and a number of network interface statistics.
- fuser command – a command line tool to identify processes using files or sockets.
- lsof command – a command line tool to list open files under Linux / UNIX to report a list of all open files and the processes that opened them.
- /proc/$pid/ file system – Under Linux /proc includes a directory for each running process (including kernel processes) at /proc/PID, containing information about that process, notably including the processes name that opened port.
You must run above command(s) as the root user.
Linux netstat command find out which process is listing upon a port
Type the following command:
# netstat -tulpn
Sample outputs:
TCP port 3306 was opened by mysqld process having PID # 1138. You can verify this using /proc, enter:
# ls -l /proc/1138/exe
Sample outputs:
You can use grep command or egrep command to filter out information:
# netstat -tulpn | grep :80
Sample outputs:
A note about ss command
Some Linux distro considered the nestat command as deprecated and therefore should be phased out in favor of more modern replacements such as ss command. The syntax is:
$ sudo ss -tulpn
$ sudo ss -tulpn | grep :3306

fuser command
Find out the processes PID that opened tcp port 7000, enter:
# fuser 7000/tcp
Sample outputs:
Finally, find out process name associated with PID # 3813, enter:
# ls -l /proc/3813/exe
Sample outputs:
/usr/bin/transmission is a bittorrent client, enter:
# man transmission
OR
# whatis transmission
Sample outputs:
Find Out Current Working Directory Of a Process
To find out current working directory of a process called bittorrent or pid 3813, enter:
# ls -l /proc/3813/cwd
Sample outputs:
OR use pwdx command, enter:
# pwdx 3813

Find Out Owner Of a Process on Linux
Use the following command to find out the owner of a process PID called 3813:
# ps aux | grep 3813
OR
# ps aux | grep ‘[3]813’
Sample outputs:
OR try the following ps command:
# ps -eo pid,user,group,args,etime,lstart | grep ‘[3]813’
Sample outputs:
Another option is /proc/$PID/environ, enter:
# cat /proc/3813/environ
OR
# grep —color -w -a USER /proc/3813/environ
Sample outputs (note –colour option):
Fig.01: grep output
lsof Command Example
Type the command as follows:
Now, you get more information about pid # 1607 or 1616 and so on:
# ps aux | grep ‘[1]616’
Sample outputs:
www-data 1616 0.0 0.0 35816 3880 ? S 10:20 0:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
I recommend the following command to grab info about pid # 1616:
# ps -eo pid,user,group,args,etime,lstart | grep ‘[1]616’
Sample outputs:
- 1616 : PID
- www-date : User name (owner – EUID)
- www-date : Group name (group – EGID)
- /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start : The command name and its args
- 03:16:22 : Elapsed time since the process was started, in the form [[dd-]hh:]mm:ss.
- Fri Oct 29 10:20:17 2010 : Time the command started.
Help: I Discover an Open Port Which I Don’t Recognize At All
The file /etc/services is used to map port numbers and protocols to service names. Try matching port numbers:
$ grep port /etc/services
$ grep 443 /etc/services
Sample outputs:
Check For rootkit
I strongly recommend that you find out which processes are really running, especially servers connected to the high speed Internet access. You can look for rootkit which is a program designed to take fundamental control (in Linux / UNIX terms “root” access, in Windows terms “Administrator” access) of a computer system, without authorization by the system’s owners and legitimate managers. See how to detecting / checking rootkits under Linux.
Keep an Eye On Your Bandwidth Graphs
Usually, rooted servers are used to send a large number of spam or malware or DoS style attacks on other computers.
Conlcusion
You learned various Linux commands to find information about running process and their ports. See the following man pages for more information:
$ man ps
$ man grep
$ man lsof
$ man netstat
$ man fuser
