Original question:
Is there a simple command available to check who (the IP#) is accessing
this web server (Sol2.5.1 with sun web server software) NOW? Like "w"
to check who is logon.
Answer:
HTTP is basically stateless. A client opens a socket, grabs a page, and disconnects.
To find out who has an active connection to the webserver at the very INSTANT you run a command, use "netstat".
netstat -a |grep http
netstat -n| grep ".80"
For past connections, check the http log file.
You may also download lsof from www.sunfreeware.com.
