It could have to to with the fact that you're probably connecting to  
the server through the '::1' interface. This doesn't seem to work if  
'::1' is not explicitly listed in '/etc/hosts.allow'. Connecting to  
the 127.0.0.1 loopback address might also help. So instead of

     Eaton-66781

use

     Eaton-66781@[127.0.0.1]

to tell whatever command you're trying to use must use the IPv4  
loopback address instead of the (on IPv6 enabled systems default) IPv6  
one.

Best regards, Arjen
