It maybe a quick question but the answer might not be so quick to find.

Firstly check that you have a 'lo' interface use 'ifconfig lo'

make sure it has a route
loopback        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0       19 lo

check that 127.0.0.1 is in /etc/hosts
# For loopbacking.
127.0.0.1       localhost

If all that is ok, then check your /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf
