Identifying Reverse Proxy Software on Redhat

[pbDetoix]

I just inherited a linux box that I need to 'figure out'. It's acting as a Reverse Proxy server and I believe it's RedHat 2.4.21...

Anyone have any tips on how I would determine what kind of reverse proxy software this was running? Where to look, how to identify, etc? Any suggestions would be a big help

Google will be a big help as always - you can search for Linux commands and then search for any unknown process names to find out what they are.

As root, ps -ef will list all processes running:

ps -ef

Example:

root      4766     1  0 Feb26 ?        00:01:07 [nfsd]
root      4770     1  0 Feb26 ?        00:00:00 [lockd]
root      4771     1  0 Feb26 ?        00:00:00 [rpciod]

root      4983     1  0 Feb26 tty4     00:00:00 /sbin/mingetty tty4

From the list above, you can see NFS, lockd, RPC, Postgre, Sendmail, Java, RARP, Cron, etc. are running.
