How to find exe listening on port?

Question

I try with netstat -ab -p tcp -n and among the results get:

  TCP    0.0.0.0:47001          0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING
Can not obtain ownership information

I am running as administrator and get that message. I also downloaded a utility to show network activity for exe's but nothing open is listening on port 47001 according to the utility.

How can I find out what is listening?

Answer 1

Try netstat with -o, it shows PID. and then use tasklist to see PID and process name. task manager also shows PID and process name

you can do your other switches with -o like -n is a good one and whatever else.

Answer 2

http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers lists this port as: winrm 47001/tcp Windows Remote Management Service Ryan Mack rmack&microsoft.com 29 April 2009

Now that doesn't prove that's what using it on your computer, but it's a pretty good guess.
