Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-256:
--------------------------------------
0.0.0.0 is synonymous for "any", the expectation would be that cassandra will
respond on "any" of the node's addresses, (that it is bound to all of them).
That is definitely not going to work.
Leaving it blank essentially leaves it up to InetAddress.getLocalHost(). This
will always do the Right Thing *if* the node is properly configured (hostname,
name resolution, etc), and the Right Thing is to use the address associated
with the hostname (it might not be).

> Right now in storage-conf we have:
> <ListenAddress>localhost</ListenAddress>
> We should probably change this to 0.0.0.0 by default for new comers, since
> setting up multi-node installation with localhost, isn't going to work right.
> Right now 0.0.0.0 might not work right, (leaving blank does). So we should
> check that in DatabaseDescriptor. Also a nice to have is maybe an XML doc
> comment.
