Yesterday, I configured a DNS server to listen just using a link-local address, the one autoconfigured for an ethernet card accessible to all the nodes.  It's a host, not a router, so I'm relying on that address not being routable and being filtered at the router.  It didn't work.  The server would not start until I specified the zone suffix.  Now I am wondering why, given that there is no ambiguous link-local address anywhere around here, I need to do that.  Can't it figure it out itself?

Sure, it can, until a new network interface appears on that box (VPN, tunnel, hardware, etc.).
