Michael - Before you go using just any port, you may want to ask yourself if something else uses that port. On most Unix systems it is sort of the honor system, as was explained to me. There is usually a file (name varies by flavor of Unix) where you are supposed to register your intention to use a port.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, February 03, 2003 11:44 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Is there an "Easy" way to assign specific tnslistener ports to a specific database? Let's say I wanted: 1521 to be prod1 1522 to be devl1 1523 to be web1 1524 to be test1 Right now ports are basically assigned to servers which may well be adequate. But I was asked, and it seems that we give a listener ports and databases, but there is no link to make one equal the other. Also, is there a limit on total number of ports that a listener can be assigned to? In some cases I could find that they could conceivably want to use 10 ports over 15-20 databases? I'm not sure this will be practical. It's such an unusual concept as usually there are 2-3 "large" databases, and this one server looks like it's a bunch of small databases. Server is currently Solaris 8, database 8.1.7 all sharing the same ORACLE_HOME. Thanks.
