| 'lsof' tells you who's connected to what program
| strace can tell you what's connected on what IP ports.
| The linux 'netstat' command does produce a per connection (with
| protocol) listing, not unlike 'lsof'.

| There is also loads of information in the SMBD log files - and you can
| turn up the debugging levels for more info.

| This is without looking at /proc - I seem to remember there is a
struct
| in there for IPv4 and TCP connections...

| How good are your scripting skills?
| I think the info is all readily available, but you have to collate it.

I didn't see the original email, but surely smbstatus tells him what
~ he's asking for?

Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids. If it did,
we'd be running around in darkened rooms, popping pills and
listening to repetitive music.
