Why would you want to? If you only want to accept local connections,
you would normally disable TCP altogether with "-nolisten tcp" and
just accept connections via a Unix-domain socket.

Other than that, "xhost +localhost" will only accept connections from
localhost. Or you can use iptables to restrict access to the port.
