Subject:   Looking for hackers with netstat
Message-ID:  <358D2C1E.45A12711@globalserve.net>

I've heard that hackers can hide their presence from the who and w
commands. Can they also hide their connections from netstat? Is netstat a
good way to look for intruders?

Thanks. 

BTW: When I run netstat to list connections without the -n argument it
often stops before finishing when it can't (I assume) resolve an IP. Can I
specify a timeout to keep it going?

Thanks again
