try
root# lsof -i | grep LISTEN
see http://packages.debian.org/lsof for details.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #19 from Dave Sherohman <esper@sherohman.org>
:
How do you determine WHICH NETWORK SERVICES ARE OPEN (active)?
Try "netstat -a | grep LISTEN". To see numeric values (instead
of the common names for services using a particular port) then
try "netstat -na" instead. For more info, look at "man netstat".
Also try "lsof -i" as root. "man lsof" for details.
