Thanks, it works very well. <div>When I call PortInfo(868) I get:<div>[{name,"tcp_inet"},</div><div> {links,[<0.234.0>]},</div><div> {id,868},</div><div> {connected,<0.234.0>},</div><div> {input,0},</div>
<div> {output,12788}]</div><div><br></div><div>So here comes my next question: how can I find out the socket information associated to this port, such as ip and port?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Andy</div><div>

I can use pid(0,22222,0) to get a pid from shell. I suppose there should be a similar way for ports. If have thousands of ports, which I do, and I just want to examine one of them from shell, I can't walk through them.<br>
