>From time to time people ask how does one know which sockets are being
listened to and people answer with a form of netstat whose parameters I
can never remember.

The fact that people don't suggest the program ss indicates that they
never heard of it. If you've heard of it great for you. Don't jump on
me.

try: ss -l  and ss-l -n and you will never go back to netsat for this
purpose. ss has other parameters that are equally interesting. I found
it while mistyping ssh.
