A tool to let you view information about open connections. It is similar to the tool of the same name that is included in FreeBSD, trying to faithfully reproduce as much functionality as is possible.

Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.

Getting started

Install on BlackArch with `pacman -S sockstat` (or add the BlackArch repository to an existing Arch Linux install). See the official BlackArch tool listing and upstream homepage linked above for details.
