why listener 's chang_password not work?
Havel Zhang
i'm using oracle 10g on a Windows XP system. for my oracle system's
security, i change listener password by follow steps:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
c:>lsnrctl
LSNRCTL> change_password
Old password:
New password:
Reenter new password:
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC1)))
Password changed for LISTENER
The command completed successfully
LSNRCTL>save_config
LSNRCTL>quit
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so it looks changed passowrd. but when i start or stop listener,
nothing happened. just like i haven't changed password. Why? anyone
have any idea?
thank you.

please check your listener.ora file，you whether or not look following
information：
PASSWORDS_LISTENER = 9954B30C9A1B9049

Nothing? The listener did restart, didn't it?
With 10g (at least on some OS), the listener administration
permissions are enforced by OS authentication. If your OS user is DBA,
you won't need a password even if it is configured for the listener.
(Note that I haven't taken the risk of checking that out on Window$.)
