Many thanks to all that helped me with this issue. A special thanks to Sonny Baillargeon for pointing out that (once downloaded and installed) lsof was indeed the tool I needed. I just used [lsof -i TCP:port#] to identify the process. Thanks again for our support.

I know this because when I try to restart the process it gives me an "Address in user" error. I am relegated to rebooting the box every time this occurs. I'm not asking for advice on the problematic Weblogic issue (that's for another authority) - what I'd like to know is how I would go about identifying the process that is holding the socket/port open. I'm fine with using the "kill -9 whatever" to get rid of it but I can't figure out which process is controlling it. I've used "netstat -a| grep weblogic" and verified that it is still open. I've read about "lsof"... but the package apparently is not available for download on Sun's Freeware site. I'm using a Solaris e250 (SunOS 5.7) server, Weblogic 5.1 SP3. Please advise.
