I figured out how to fix this, here it is if anyone has the same problem.
Under RH 7.1 at least, you have to disable libwrap for linuxconf in xinetd.
So in the linuxconf-web config file I added "flags = NOLIBWRAP". And it
works!

Hello,

Hoping someone can help with web access to linuxconf. When I hit port 98 for
linuxconf, I get a page not found error and these messages show up in my
logs.

I am connecting from an external system, I don't know why it is registering
as 0.0.0.0. Anyone have any ideas?
