With oc, I can portward a pod in open shift to get local access.
oc get pods
oc port-forward MY-POD-NAME 5555:5555
How do I stop it after I start it?
I've searched through
oc port-forward --help
I don't see a way to get a list of all "port-forwards" to try and get a unique name.
Error message when I try to start listening (note, my pod-name is different after redeployment)
Unable to listen on port 5555: All listeners failed to create with the following errors: Unable to create listener: Error listen tcp4 127.0.0.1:5555: bind: address already in use, Unable to create listener: Error listen tcp6: address [[::1]]:5555: missing port in address error: Unable to listen on any of the requested ports: [{5555 5555}]

You should be able to stop oc port-forward by using Ctrl-C (confirmed here).
If the port is still stuck open, then you can use sudo netstat -lnp to find the PID keeping it open. For example:
$ sudo netstat -lnp | grep 5555
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5555 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 302867/oc
tcp6 0 0 ::1:5555 :::* LISTEN 302867/oc
Once you have the PID (which is the number here : 302867/oc), you can use sudo kill -9 <PID> to end the process, and that should free up that port.
