Yesterday, I configured a DNS server to listen just using a link-local address,

a host, not a router, so I'm relying on that address not being routable and
being filtered at the router. It didn't work. The server would not start
until I specified the zone suffix. Now I am wondering why, given that there is
no ambiguous link-local address anywhere around here, I need to do that. Can't
it figure it out itself?
Sure, it can, until a new network interface appears on that box (VPN,
tunnel, hardware, etc.).
