If a connection is established, then you can find the owner by comparing 
the inode in /proc/net/tcp with the /proc/<PID> tree [all the numbered 
folders].  In each of these there is a folder named fd which provides 
symbolic links to the open file descriptors which that PID is using.  a 
quick ls -l will give you the information you need to resolve it to a 
socket inode, you'll usually see socket:[32424] or something similar.  
You then know which PID owns the conection.  I have some python code 
which resolves this all to program names if you want it?
