Reload doesn't close/reopen the file.  Here is a couple solutions   

How's about a fast cat/clear solution: 

#!/bin/ksh 
cat listener.log >>listener.log.hist 
ex listener.log <<EOF 
1,\$d 
wq 
EOF 

Or if you wish to purge 90% of the file: 

#!/bin/ksh 
wc -l listener.log | read v_lines junk 
v_keep=$(($((${v_lines} * 10)) / 100)) 
v_purge=$((${v_lines} - ${v_keep})) 
ex listener.log <<EOF 
1,${v_purge}d 
wq 
EOF

->Hi List, 
->As a regular maintainance work,I have moved the listener.log file to 
->listener.log.old 
->and 'touch'ed the listener.log, expecting the logging into this new file. 
->But I am observing the logging being done to listener.log.old, instead. 
->I could not recall any such previous experience. 
->FYI, I cannot do any 'experiments' as far as this system is concerned as I

->have to deal with 
->desupported HP-UX(10.01), Oracle (7.2.2.3). 
->I have my logging being done to default path($ORACLE_HOME/network/log), as

->no parameter settings in listener.ora. 
->Has anybody experienced this?

The file handle listener is using is still pointed at the old file.  To fix
this you need to stop and start the listener.  This will not affect anybody
who is already connected.  I'm not sure if a reload will do the same thing.
