Hi CarrieB --

My netstat doesn't appear to have the -p or the -l parms.
What you describe sounds way cool, though.

Here's what I get:

# netstat -pl
netstat: invalid option -- p
usage: netstat [-veenNcCF] [<Af>] -r         netstat {-V|--version|-h|--help}
       netstat [-vnNcaeo] [<Socket>]
       netstat { [-veenNac] -i | [-cnNe] -M }

        -r, --route              display routing table
        -i, --interfaces         display interface table
        -s, --statistics         display networking statistics
        -M, --masquerade         display masqueraded connections

        -v, --verbose            be verbose
        -n, --numeric            dont resolve names
        -e, --extend             display other/more informations
        -c, --continuous         continuous listing

        -a, --all, --listening   display all
        -o, --timers             display timers

<Socket>={-t|--tcp} {-u|--udp} {-w|--raw} {-x|--unix} --ax25 --ipx --netrom
<Af>= -A {inet|ipx|netrom|ddp|ax25},... --inet --ipx --netrom --ddp --ax25
#

Are you using a special version of netstat?
Where did you get it?

Thanks mucho,
