Thanks... The -F helps.

Also, The version of lsof if was using (from sunfreeware.com) apparently 
has bug in it that was causing it to not display port mapping right. 
Replacing it with a patched version solved that and it seems to do exactly 
what I need.

I use netstat -an a lot to see what is happening, but it is not helping me 
to figure out what non-standard services are running.  Sure, if I see port 
25 then I'm looking for processes with names like qmail, postfix, or 
sendmail.

With lsof, I can tell which command started the process that is listening 
on port X like websphere on port 9270.  I can then check for startup 
scripts & versions.

Thanks,
Liston
