How to tell which ports are open or in use?
How to tell which ports are open or in use?
is there a command or application in Puppylinux 5.25 that declares the ports in use and their status: open or closed?
Bruce I did not find it so I went to Console/Terminal and wrote
superscan and that started it.
one can specify the range of ports one want to scan
As usual it does not work for me it only says
host 127.0.0.1 but nothing else about which port is in use or not.
I mean port80 it would find real fast would it not. I waited minutes now

I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

nooby it should be at the bottom of your Network menu. If you have java installed you could also use AngryIP http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=67345

Thanks yes you are right but that did not help a bit because it did not tell any different result of the scan. Not even port 80 comes up dispite them in use now when I write to you.DPUP5520 wrote:nooby it should be at the bottom of your Network menu.

Does one have to shut down firefox? I don't have java and don't plan to get one.
Superscanner has run for some 15 minutes still show no other result than the host

I have no happy experience with Superscan (not least because of its lack of user information), in fact I have just had to force drop to CLI when it froze my 431.
Depending on purpose, perhaps nmap might help the OP? It is absent from the Puppy Package Manager in 5- series (but the early version nmap 4.03 from the 3- series works for me in the 4-series).
mohan34u did a lot of work a while back preparing nmap/zenmap PETs of later versions, but the links to his repository now fail ... anyone know if his efforts are preserved elsewhere?
FWIW, I have a strong interest in checking port 5060 status. Seems some naughty ISPs offering 'free routers' block 5060 at the router as an anti-competitive measure, to prevent use of rival VoIP services. SheildsUp and nmap appear to be confirming this ... which would explain weeks of frustration not getting PSip etc. to work properly.
(Thanks for the AngryIP link).

Get nmap and:
That will show your open ports.
For ports being used, maybe this helps:
Regards.
Code: Select all
nmap 127.0.0.1
For ports being used, maybe this helps:
Code: Select all
netstat -n | grep tcp*
if you're gonna use nmap to check your open ports do
the second one will scan for open ports utilizing udp whereas the first will not
Code: Select all
nmap 127.0.0.1
then
nmap -sU 127.0.0.1

The ports on my PC that are shown as open using nmap are
Interesting ports on localhost (127.0.0.1):
Not shown: 1024 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
139/tcp open unknown
631/tcp open unknown
and using the -sU parameter, those are
Interesting ports on localhost (127.0.0.1):
Not shown: 1021 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
137/udp open|filtered unknown
138/udp open|filtered unknown
631/udp open|filtered unknown
I have a DSL modem/router connected to my PC with a second wireless router connected to the DSL router.
So is the list of open ports look about right?

rcrsn51,
You are correct on both counts. Thanks for the reply.
AJ,
Thank you for the link that explains use of each port.
I'm a bit tired and did not think to do a web search.
Also, you have one interesting web site with interesting articles.
And it appears the government thinks so too.
Maybe I am just dense, but I could not see anything that would have been of interest to them.

AngryIP
I have used AngryIP since its inception. It has never failed me in my 11 years of using in both Windows and Linux. AND it finds port 80 too. If you're having a problem where it cannot find port 80 if your browser is open, I'd be interested to learn "how that is?" I used it many times ot help users on local LANs who are having some anomolies. Best tool I have ever found for fast accurate discovery.
For Puppy users, Get it from here (Linux use must have JAVA. All Microsoft OSs have JAVA built-in)
Hope this helps

Same here, I just double checked with AngryIP and nmap and I can't get port 80 to show on either of em.I have tested nmap, Superscan and Angry IP Scanner on Puppy CLIENT machines and I can never get it to show Port 80 open when a browser is running. However, if I scan a machine that is running a web SERVER, it will detect Port 80 open.

I do have a poor memory but as I remember my Windows had one version of Java and then when I wanted to use it for a program needing it then them told me to change to another companies Java.
So it was not just another version of the same company but a totally other Java that was supposed to be better than the one included in the OS?
