ports

is there a command that shows you what ports are open on a particular machine? I'm trying to configure a php webmail script and I need to know whether imap is running or not (normally it runs on 143).

A portscanner?

You could always try "telnet <ip> 143" - I think that works.

Do a websearch, there's tonnes.

netstat -a will show you the active connections. (I'm assuming you can log into the box).

Or indeed sockstat on FreeBSD, also shows the process id and process name that
has the socket open.
netstat -ap on linux will give somthing similar.
