How can I find out information about a service?












1















$ nmap -p0-65535 192.168.0.142

Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2019-03-10 17:53 EDT
Nmap scan report for ocean (192.168.0.142)
Host is up (0.000031s latency).
Not shown: 65531 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
80/tcp open http
111/tcp open rpcbind
3306/tcp open mysql
33060/tcp open mysqlx

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 11.06 seconds


What is service mysqlx?



Why is it not mapped in /etc/services?



$ cat /etc/services  |  grep mysql
mysql 3306/tcp
mysql 3306/udp
mysql-proxy 6446/tcp # MySQL Proxy
mysql-proxy 6446/udp


Why is it not part of the command for the process?



$ ps -A | grep mysqlx


Is it possible that nmap can report misleading information? Do you find out the services running on the local machine not by nmap?



Thanks.

          sudo lsof -i :33060


          or



          sudo fuser -v 33060/tcp
