Does your system use inetd?  Most are using xinetd now, more secure.

In other words, do you have a directory /etc/xinetd.d?  If so, the 
scripts that go in there are completely different from the one liners 
in inetd.conf.

Thats (the 127.0.0.1) an alias for localhost.  Please please please 
read the FAQ and do not use localhost or its derivatives, use a Fully 
Qualified Domain Name aka a FQDN thats resolvable in your /etc/hosts 
file or in a running DNS server your machine knows about.  The 
machines name and address MUST be unique and resolvable.
