OK, I stand corrected, it works :) But please note that Wikipedia says (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0.0.0.0):
""" In the Internet Protocol Version 4, the address 0.0.0.0 is a non-routable meta-address used to designate an invalid, unknown or non-applicable target. To give a special meaning to an otherwise invalid piece of data is an application of in-band signaling. In the context of servers, 0.0.0.0 means "all IPv4 addresses on the local machine". If a host has two ip addresses, 192.168.1.1 and 10.1.2.1, and a server running on the host listens on 0.0.0.0, it will be reachable at both of those IPs. """ i.e. I was not totally wrong when I stated "0.0.0.0" was not a valid host address. Laurent.
