[xdebug-general] Re: Xdebug won't listen on port 9000

xDebug does not listen on port 9000, it makes connections to clients
listening on port 9000.

You will not see any connections in netstat, because it tries to connect and
if there is nothing listening it does not initiate a debug session. You
could try using xinitd and/or tcpdump or a simple perl or other language to
make a listener on port 9000 and see what connects to it.
