I had wondered about that too. However the OP also said:
... I am able to generate an xterm window from another modern computer
on the network "xterm -display 192.168.1.1:1.0".
So that purported success seems to indicate that there is both something
listening on :1 (6001) and that it's listening on more than 127.0.0.1.
