Jay, That doesn't solve the problem.
What Tim was referring to was executing the copy of lsnrctl that exists on his laptop. I recall a DBA doing this accidentally at a previous job. He copied the listener.ora file to another server, then ran 'lsnrctl stop' before modifying the file for the new server. Guess what happened?

I'm still amazed that it's world executable.
