This has been discussed multiple times on this list. TCP connections have been disabled by default.
To quote http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2003-November/msg01877.html:
/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf
change the following line:
FROM:
#DisallowTCP=true
TO:
DisallowTCP=false
Now restart gdm. Should work now.
