If you don't want anybody connecting to that Xastir then turn off
the server ports on the Interface menu.

If you're asking why the Readline errors and such, I suspect either
that the Winlink station isn't authenticating on the socket, it's
connecting and then not sending anything for a period of time, or
it's connecting and disconnecting but not following the proper
protocol for disconnecting a socket.
