u can write the script in shell for a particular task of listing

in linux we have commands
lsof -i TCP (displays online open tcp ports)
lsof -i UDP
above commands work for linux only

netstat -anp | head -20

nmap -anp ( if the nmap utility is installed in linux system)


thru netstat only we can get much of the information regarding the open ports

you can also use "sockstat" if applicable.

sockstat works on BSD
netstat can be used for unix platform of solaris,hpux

You can try, on linux,
Code:
 # netstat -lpn | grep httpd
.. if you know that the server is httpd (apache), there you can figure out what ports and address has apache bound to as well as process' pid.

on freebsd systems try
Code:
# sockstat -ln | grep httpd
