Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: LSNRCTL Password
If password protection is being used, you must set the password before you
can issue the STOP command. When using passwords for the listener, you
cannot issue the STOP command at the operating system level because the
password can only be set within the lsnctrl utility.
There are two types of password mechanisms in lsnctrl.
1. Unencrypted and
2. U guessed it right - Encrypted.
Here is some theory:
In the listener.ora file add this line:
PASSWORDS_PRODUCTION_LISTENER = (password1, password2)
U can add as many passwords as u like. U can use any one of them to control the listened.
Now, a word about the encrypted passwords:
At the prompt
LSNRCTL> CHANGE_PASSWORD
This will prompt you to enter a new password.
Now, You have an encrypted password.
TO STOP THE LISTENER, U HAVE TO MANUALLY ENTER OR TYPE IN THE PASSWORD IF
YOU ARE USING ENCRYPTED PASSWORD.
However, if u are using an unencrypted password, then just creat a script
file to contain these lines:
Correct me if I am wrong.

Can anyone tell me what the syntax is to start, stop, or reload the
listener
when there is a password on it?
