Re: 10.2 listener won't start on same port as 9.2 listener

It's backward compatible but not without problems some times. I ran into a problem using 9i listener for a 8.1.7.4 <http://8.1.7.4> DB where it start to run out of file
descriptors. Revert back to 8i listener solved the problem. So I had to run two listeners.
