Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-675:
---------------------------------
Nice. So does the default make it bind to all hosts?
Guys--I recommend we take this for 0.8. Since we have a configuration for this
it should work and without this I think kafka won't run well on AWS.
> Only bind to the interface declared in the 'hostname' config property

> At the moment, Kafka always binds to all interfaces (0.0.0.0) which isn't
> ideal on some environments, even if the 'hostname' config parameter is set.
> Kafka should only bind to the interface set in the 'hostname' parameter -
> which defaults to InetAddress.getLocalHost.getHostAddress
