saned provides two options to configure listening address and port. Otherwise, by default it listens whole world, i.e. :::6566 if you have ipv6. And while there are options to change that, Gentoo by default doesn't provide configuration for them in openrc scripts. It would be great to provide them. Options in question are '-b address' (--bind=address) and '-p port' (--port=port).
