A new tool is available that can be used to test an Oracle listener. It is called "Oracle TNSLSNR Full Client" and has been provided by DokFLeed. It is written in C and is free and supports the following commands:
"ping , version , service , status change_password, help, reload, save_config, set connect_timout set display_mode, set log_directory , set log_file , set log_status , show , spawn stop"
The tool also supports full packet crafting (if you know what you are doing) and is based on the previous work by James Abendschan. The protocol has changed in 10g so this tool will be accompanied by a 10g version soon.
I have of course updated my Oracle Security tools page to include this tool.
