HPUX 11 and snmp daemon

[Matthews, Justin]

I have not administered this machine and would guess that it was started as
root.  I was unable to use lsof to figure out what is using port 162( lsof
-I UDP:162 ).  Is there a standard snmp trap daemon that comes with HPUX 11
that would be running?

Thanks ,

did you start the trap receiver as root (only root can bind to ports <
1024)?

/etc/services is only table that holds mappings numeric port <-->
readable name. "lsof -i" and netstat (at least under linux) can help to
identify which program listens on which port.

Kind regards,
