# Internal IP address - This should always be 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0 means
"listen for connections on any interface", basically a wildcard) if
you want to access this server from the internet or another server on
your internal network, this should be the IP address assigned to the
OpenSim Server.
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Configuration
On a computer that has multiple "nics" (virtual or otherwise) 0.0.0.0
binds to all of the nics (i.e traffic can come in any of the nics)
rather than a specific IP address which is bound to a specific nic.
I cant say why the wildcard address wouldn't work externally (the second
half of the paragraph). I havent looked that closely at the connection
code.
