    Managers,

    My apologies in advance if this turns out to be a RTFM
    kind of questions, but I am in a jam here. I get the
    following message when trying to start a process that
    uses port 5600:

     java.net.BindException: Address already in use: Unable to bind
     port number 5600

    This suggests that some other process is using that port, so my
    question is:

    How do I find out what process (pid) is using the port so I can
    kill it? Been trying things with netstat, but can't find the pid.
