I see someone has already given you instructions on how
to use a password with listener.ora.

Just thought I might add that they are fairly useless, as you
*cannot* prevent someone with dba group privileges on another
node of the network from shutting down your listener.

They won't be able to start it, but they'll sure be able to shut
it down, and you can't keep them from doing it.

We ran into this at my last employer, and decided passwords
on the listener were a waste of time.
