I'm running Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 Enterprise Server on RHEL 4. I notice after a couple days a second listener process gets created. Client can't connect when this happens and I need to stop and restart the listener then only 1 listener process is running. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?

$ ps -ef | grep LISTENER
