No, it listens on all interfaces. However, if you run a firewall on your client machine (which is the default on most modern O/S's), Port 4242 won't be opened to the LAN unless you specifically want it to be. You can use SSH tunneling (vglconnect -s) to establish a connection with the VirtualGL Server without opening that port.
