[Bitlbee] Cannot connect locally

I installed my own Bitlbee package and I can't even connect to it from the box it's running on through xinetd. When I connect from a different box in the LAN all goes well and I end up in a channel with @root.

I edited /etc/hosts.allow, and here's my /etc/xinetd.d/bitlbee:

service ircd
{
         socket_type     = stream
         protocol        = tcp
         wait            = no
         user            = nobody
         only_from       = localhost
         server          = /usr/sbin/bitlbee
         port            = 6667
}

Does anyone have a clue?

Re: [Bitlbee] Cannot connect locally

service bitlbee
{
        type = UNLISTED
        socket_type = stream
        protocol = tcp
        wait = no
        user = bitlbee
        group = bitlbee
        server = /usr/sbin/bitlbee
        port = 6667
        disable = no
        only_from = localhost
}

I can connect fine here.
