See the file /usr/doc/xfs/README.Debian:
Also, be aware that, as of xfs 3.3.3.1-3, the default xfs configuration has
TCP port listening disabled for security reasons. If you have xfs serving
fonts to remote hosts via TCP, you will need to re-enable this option.
And from xfs(1):
no-listen (trans-type)
Disable a transport type. For example, TCP/IP con
nections can be disabled with "no-listen = tcp".
