Yes, I agree. I was using 8.1.7.4 with 9.2.0.4 listener on HP-UX 11i.

Well, what you did might not be the same as what I did as it depends on the platform, versions, etc. which I didn't mention in my post. My point was backward compatiblity doesn't always work as advertised.
Best regards

It's backward compatible but not without problems some times. I ran into a problem using 9i listener for a 8.1.7.4 DB where it start to run out of file descriptors. Revert back to 8i listener solved the problem. So I had to run two listeners.
