8i private connection

We have a DB server and application server that communicate via 192.x.x.x private network. This works well. Users connect to the application via another network. I as DBA now want to get direct to the DB from my workstation which is outside this private net.
Of course the DB server has 2 network cards. I can reach it using telnet or ping or whatever. I can even telnet to it and start sqlplus.

How can I configure the listener.ora (or whatever) to allow me to communicate - but nobody else.

Yes: I want to tell the listener to listen on the local, private address
<<and>> my workstation address.

Must I stop the listener or can I tell it to restart with a new config file ?

Thanks in advance
