Dan,

A SQL*Net V1 client cannot connect to a SQL*Net V2 listener. It is possible to run both V1 and V2 listeners on the same server, I have had to do this a number of times in order to support client tools which are not compatible with V2. The oracle executable on the server must be relinked with the object libs for both versions of SQL*Net. /etc/services will need to be modified to include both listeners. Consult your installation guide and SQL*Net version guides for specifics.

hope this helps

regards,
Chuck
