Windows and processes/ports

| | Comments (0)

I'm not a big windows head, so here are a few notes to myself next time I need them. These help identify what ports are in a "listen" state; and what processes own those ports.

To see listening ports: netstat -o -a -n

To see processes, open up windows task manager, view->select columns, and add "pid".

A gui process explorer that looks to be a good replacement for lsof (except for sockets):
Process Explorer

A gui lsof replacement for sockets only:
TcpView

Since midnight something has been posting spam via the web server; I've killed everything in the queue that was going outbound spam. Outbound mail to AOL, YAHOO, etc mail be delayed considerably (They blacklisted us due to the spam).  The entry point for it has been neutralized (and the vulnerable software is now on the ban list here).
