Quickie node.js to grab & parse current local TCP connections [netstat, Windows]

netstat.js

var child = require('child_process'),
	util = require('util'),
	netstat = child.spawn('netstat', ['-nb']),
	out = ''

netstat.stdout.on('data', function(data) {
	out += data
})
netstat.stderr.on('data', function(data) {
	console.log('err: ' + data)
})
netstat.on('exit', function(code) {
	var i, bucket = [], processes = {}
	if(code !== 0) {
		console.log('!!! exited, status code: ' + code)
		return
	}

	// parse & serialize netstat output
	out = out.split(/\n/)
	// drop the first three lines...
	for(i = 0; i <= 3; i++)	out.shift()
	out.forEach(function(entry) {
		if(!entry) return
		entry = entry.replace(/^\s\s*/, '').replace(/\r/, '').replace('Can not obtain ownership information', '[???]').split(/[ ]+/)
		if(entry[0][0] == '[') {
			i = entry[0].replace(/^\[([^\]]+)\]$/, '$1')
			if(processes[i] === undefined) processes[i] = []
			processes[i] = processes[i].concat(bucket)
			bucket = []
		} else {
			bucket.push({
				conntype:entry[0],
				source:entry[1],
				dest:entry[2],
				//status:entry[3],
			})
		}
	})
	out = JSON.stringify(processes)
	// READY FOR DISPATCH! *salute*
})

Justification - I'm creating a remote console to check up on remote lab systems as there's someone getting up to no good (they're playing games on equipment they don't own), yet I don't have any tools to see the ports in use remotely nor the authority to just shut their system down.

Combined with an express.js microserver... ^^;
