Juan, to add to what Hans said - you also only need a -single- listener per platform. Even if there are different version Oracle instances on that platform. A single Oracle listener can service multiple databases and different Oracle versions on a single platform (within reason though - doubt that a 10G listener can service a 7.2.1 instance.. never tried that myself).

As for configuring the listener - vi the listener.ora file (in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin) and configure. Yes there are GUI stuff to do it.. but that is for WIMPy dudes. :-)

Configuring and understanding the listener settings are best done IMO by getting your hands dirty and doing it manually (with the manual at hand). Just remember that a good command line hacker -always- have backups.
