TCP/IP info = URL ?

badtz

Is there a unix command, or an osx program I could use to get the tcp/ip traffic information?



the netstat unix command gives network information, but doesn't give the exact url of the location of the activity.



example:: how to know what url a streaming movie is coming from? etc. etc.





thanks

A netstat -na will show you all ip addresses that you currently have connections open to.

Never heard of a url based tool.

do an nslookup on the server name (eg nslookup apple.com) and trace it from there.

This is how I looked up the port and ipaddress that MSN messanger uses and the new music store. Purely for informational purpose!
