Kill listener process

Hi,
I want to kill the listener process, as i am not able to stop it.
When i do netstat i get follwoing info.

netstat -a| grep 1522

tcp 0 0 *:1522 *:* LISTEN

How to get the OS process ID, so that i can kill using Kill -9 command

ps -efw | grep tns - you can also get the process id from netstat

or lsnrctl stop - why doesnt that work

I am pretty sure bang_dba does know how to stop a listener, if he wants to kill the process then he must have already tried to stopped the listener using lsnrctl

stop replying to this thread - you obviously have no idea whats going on. You arent the person who made this thread therefore you have no idea what is wrong and why it doesnt work for him. Saying 'it works for me' is the most pointless unhelpful repsonse ever

Hey... i did some modification to the Listner.ora (i dont remeber what i did), due to which even after stopping the listner, the port was showing occupied.

Also when i tried to allocate the same to a different listener, it was showing as port occupied; and i wanted to kill the process.

Netstat command was just giving the following output and i wasn't sure of the os process id to kill

netstat -a| grep 1522
tcp 0 0 *:1522 *:* LISTEN

Now i cannot simulate the same as the machine is rebooted.

Moral - always take a copy of the working listener.ora before changes, or at least document what changes you make to it. I take it everything is OK now?
