Nifty, `ss -i` seems useful. I think most of the rest of the info you can get with netstat, though (and there doesn't seem to be a way to resolve usernames, as `netstat -e` does).

Is there a way to make the output not justified to the width of my terminal? The extra whitespace makes it hard to see which rows match up, and also makes it annoying to paste into IM or email.

Challenge accepted:

  ss -e | grep uid | gawk 'match($0,/uid:([0-9]+)/,u) {printf "%s user:",$0;system("getent passwd "u[1]" | cut -d: -f1");}'

Not your point, I know, but it was fun.

You lose three points for using grep and gawk in the same pipeline. :P

Oops, the grep was just to filter the lines that actually have a uid while I worked on it, it's not needed or desired if you were to actually use this. You can remove that part. :P
