Hi Paul,

Did you configure the interface or the outgoing-interface?  In any
case, 0.0.0.0 or your IP giving permission denied once in a while is
bad.  Something is wrong with your system somehow, and it is
intermittent.  Are there port numbers that are not allowed by system
policy that you have enabled in unbound.conf (by default it skips
<1024 ports) ?

Best regards,
   Wouter
