start X with the "-nolisten tcp" , if you're starting x manually with startx 
the format would be "startx -- -nolisten tcp", if you have the system start X 
automagically edit /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers and change:
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X
to
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp

(these instructions are for rh7.2 but i'm pretty sure it's all you need for 
mdk8.1 too)
