now openser looks at start-up for available interfaces and binds to all 
of them (if non explicitly given) - so it will listen on a fix set of 
interface - you cannot add or remove.

when listening on 0.0.0.0 will listen only on one socket, but on all 
interfaces without knowing which they are..the kernel will transparently 
add and remove new interface, if available...so it's a more dynamic 
approach.
