Hi SoloUnAltroNick,

It actually says for the authoritive nameserver:

"local-address=...

Local IP address to which we bind. You can specify multiple addresses separated 
by commas or whitespace.

It is highly advised to bind to specific interfaces and not use the default 
'bind to any'. This causes
big problems if you have multiple IP addresses. Unix does not provide a way of 
figuring out what IP
address a packet was sent to when binding to any."

http://docs.powerdns.com/all-settings.html

So my guess is the default IP-address (default gateway) works, but the otherone 
doesn't if you use 0.0.0.0.

If you are using the recursor, I guess the same thing applies and maybe the 
documentation should be enhanched.

Hope that answers your question
