xinetd works by listening on a given port, then firing up the specified
service when a request comes in on that port.

Are you sure this is what you want?

Even if this were to work, you'd end up starting a new Tomcat server

What about using a firewall, and/or some of the access-control valves
(I forget the exact names, but they let you limit access based on
incoming IP, etc.)
