When your machine is connected to a network, it has some kind of network
interface (usually some piece of hardware). If you try to connect to
localhost, this happens via the (logical) network interface named lo (the
loopback interface), while a connection to a remote machine goes through
the (physical) network interface eth0.

From the other mails you have written in this thread I meanwhile know that
you're trying to start leafnode via xinetd (you should have mentioned this
right at the beginning, BTW.). So here are some questions:
Did you actually check wether xinetd is running?
If yes, did you restart it after changing its config?
Is xinetd itself configured to listen on interface lo?
Is leafnode configure to listen on interface lo (not sure it needs to when
xinetd already does)?
HTH...
