Bind named to 0.0.0.0 (INADDR_ANY)

Hello,

I'm trying to get named to listen on IPv4 0.0.0.0:53 (INADDR_ANY):
 * http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/academic/class/15441-f01/www/assignments/P2/htmlsim_split/node18.html

I've tried:
listen-on { 0.0.0.0; };

This gives no binding at all.

listen-on { any; };
listen-on { localhost; };
listen-on { localnets; };

These explicitly bind named to the configured local IP addresses.

Is there another way to do this?

Thanks in advance.
