i should change /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers but this dont work for 7.1, anyone know how to disable it in 7.1 ? I do not want to block it using a firewall.

I don't have the FAQ handy but watch for the correct directory in /etc Here is what mine looks like

ivory1:~ > grep nolisten /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt07 -nolisten tcp

Remember that a restart of X is needed for the change to become effective.
