Make sure you add a line to /etc/hosts.allow like this popper: 192.168.0.15,192.168.0.21 etc... xinetd is probably being run with a TCP wrapper and will only allow connections from addresses listed in hosts.allow.
Also, you can check your logs for information by doing tail /var/log/syslog immediately after you try to connect. You can go back more lines with tail -n where n is the number of lines back. tail -f will continuously update the output as more lines are written to log.
