Find out which process is listening on a port

Yan Cui

I help clients go faster for less using serverless technologies.

I needed to find out which process is listening on a port the other day and a quick search on SO showed me the way and all you need is to run:

netstat –aon | find /i "listening"

and you will get a list of the ports and the PID of the process listening on that port:
