Hi Gurus, I am puzzled about when protocol.ora is used when the listener get started. I have two listeners (regular and TNS_ADMIN) that listen for two sets of databases, regular dedicated and MTS, respectively. I want to restrict connections for only the databases with dedicated connections. I can do it, but only when the mts listener is started first WITHOUT protocol.ora in place, then the dedicated listener with protocol.ora in the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory. This is not the case when both listeners listen for only dedicated connection databases. protocol.ora gets used properly for this situation and no need for this particular order of starting. Does anyone know why?
