'ps -ef' will list all processes that are running, but you might want to
pipe that through less ('ps -ef|less') as it will usually be more than a
screen's worth. Note that services such as inetd (or xinetd) may,
themselves. run other services 'on demand' when incoming connections are
received.

I suspect there's more to this question than simply getting a list of all
running services, so what is the real problem you are trying to solve?
