tcplist
       tcplist - list tcp connections to/from this machine

SYNOPSIS
       tcplist	[ -n ] [ -N ] [	-T ] [ -s ] [ -v ] [ -V	] [ -f filename	] [ -t
       timeout ]

DESCRIPTION
       Tcplist lists all the TCP connections to	or from	the machine it is  run
       on.  If any of the remote machines are running Ident-compilant servers,
       this is queried,	and the	results	listed for each	connection. Output  is
       by default in "user@address:portnum user@address:portnum" format.

       Ident queries are done using non-blocking I/O, for performance.

OPTIONS
       -T     Report  results  in  tabular format, with	header.	This format is
	      probably easier to read, but harder to parse.

       -n     Don't resolve hostnames, but use host IP addresses instead.

       -N     Don't resolve port names.	Use port numbers instead.

       -s     Show TCP servers running on this machine as well as  established
	      connections.

       -v     Verbose mode: give a running commentary of what is being done.

       -V     Print version information	and exit.

       -f filename
	      Assume  the  hosts  listed in the	specified file are not running
	      Ident servers, and  should  not  be  queried.  Listing  terminal
	      servers,	X  terminals,  PC's, and similar machines in this file
	      can significantly	speed up tcplist in some environments.

       -t timeout
	      Use the specified	timeout	for Ident queries. The default timeout
	      is 30 seconds.

FILES
       /etc/services, /etc/hosts

BUGS
       The  kernel's tables can	change while tcplist is	examining them,	creat-
       ing incorrect or	partial	displays.

       Excessively long	strings	returned by Ident servers may be truncated.

       If an Ident server doesn't respond within the timeout, it  is  presumed
       to  be down.  If	the machine is very slow, remote, or congested,	it may
       in fact be up.  The shorter the timeout,	the more likely	this will be.
