	If you would, please define more precisely what you mean by "the
interface scanning problem." What I understood you to mean in your last
post was that you didn't want BIND scanning interfaces after startup
because that wreaked havoc with the sandbox situation. That problem is
neatly solved by defining interface-interval to zero. If you are concerned
about other problems, I apologize for misunderstanding the question.

	I have never had a problem specifying which aliases I want BIND to
bind to, and which ones I don't. YMMV of course.
