Hi,

On Windows, how do I find out what service or process initiates a network connection to a known address?

Thanks.

Don't know what exactly you are looking for, but netstat -b shows processes associated with displayed ports.

Yes, provided I know when the connection is initiated and it stays connected long enough. It might be ended before netstat if even launched.

`netstat -n -v -b 5` does the trick. Thanks.
