Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat 7.1: how to listen on specific address ?
Hi
I just downloaded and installed Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat 7.1. Things worked fine so far, I got the database up and running.
What I'd finally like to to is to bind all listening services to localhost addresses only.
Trying this, two questions/problems came up when calling netstat -l with output
tcp 0 0 *:32771 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:32772 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 *:1521 *:* LISTEN and lsof with output oracle 783 oracle 9u IPv4 1525 TCP *:32771 (LISTEN) oracle 785 oracle 9u IPv4 1530 TCP *:32772 (LISTEN)
(i) what exactly are the services running on ports 32771/32772 and how can
I configure them to listen on 127.0.0.1 only ?
(ii) why does the tns listener (port 1521 if I'm not wrong) listen on _all_
addresses although my 'listener.ora' looks like LISTENER = (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521)) ) (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC)) ) ) ) ??
Thanks a lot
Gunther
