Seeing Who's Connected

I love the networking feature of iTunes. I was wondering if there was a way to see the ip or name of the computer who is connected to your computer. also, I would love to know what peole are listening to on my library. Is there a way to figure this stuff out? Or bettter yet is there some kind of script that can display this info say on my desktop? thanks for any help.

well shoulnt you know... i mean how many people are connected to your local network?

I think a firewall should be able to tell you what IP is connected.

Couldn't you just go into DOS and type netstat?

A nice alternative to netstat is TCPView by Sysinternals:

This shows you which address/port is connected to which process (kind of a more detailed "netstat -o" in xp?) and allows you to kill processes with suspicous connections :who's your daddy:

Dude, that prog is awesome!!!

Is it foolproof though? I love it because it is such a tiny prog.

Is it the best out there?

Sometimes it might eat up resources a bit... like for example if you're downloading some big file (like an iso or two) off bittorrent.... not that I would do such a thing :blink: (paranoia sets in...). But that's to be expected considering the amount of traffic that thing generates. Also check out their Process Explorer it's amazing! (Y)
