Oracle 10g Listener problem

listeneroracle

In Oracle 10g I have a listener problem,

Here is tnsnames.ora :

MYTNS =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = 
       (PROTOCOL = TCP)
       (HOST = testiold)
       (PORT = 1521)
      )
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = mysid)
    )
  )

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = 
        (PROTOCOL = IPC)
        (KEY = EXTPROC)
      )
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SID = PLSExtProc)
      (PRESENTATION = RO)
    )
  )

and the listener.ora:

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (GLOBAL_DBNAME = mysid)
      (ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/10.2.4/db/OraHome_1)
      (SID_NAME = mysid)
    )
  )

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
     (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = 
        (PROTOCOL = TCP)
        (HOST = testiold)
        (PORT = 1521)
      )
     )
    )
  )

The proble is I cannot start the listener with this configs, when I try lsnrctl start I got this:

and whenever I try to connect to DB it says:

ORA-28547: connection to server failed, probable Oracle Net admin error

Can you please help me?

As Phil Says I replaced hostname with Actual IP but the connection prblem was for 

(PROGRAM = extproc)

In listener.ora file, Removing it solved the issue.

To let external procedures work these changes should be done:

Adding new SID entry in SID_LIST_LISTENER SID_LIST with SID_NAME = SID in tnsnames.ora at EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA and PROGRAM = extproc and a proper ORACLE_HOME(Environment variables can be added)

In ADDRESS_LIST in LISTENER part of listener.ora new ADDRESS Entry should be added with PROTOCOL = ipc and KEY = EXTPROC
