xinetd[1994]: START: nsca pid=2518 from=::ffff <IP Address>

Greetings everyone,
I installed nagios 3.5 with NSCA on Centos 6 and everything was working fine. I decided to upgrade nagios to version 4 on the same machine. I also reinstalled NSCA. While the upgrade itself on both Nagios and NSCA went okay the NSCA part is filling up the logs with
When I run "netstat -planet | grep 5667 " I get 176 lines that have 5667 port in it.
I'm able to telnet to <IP>:5667 and the connection holds (doesn't disconnect right away). Nagios Dashboard shows the hosts that I defined but all are in the pending status (except for the localhost of course).
The following URL is the tutorials that I'm going by:

A few observations:
1) Nagios 3.5 was installed in /etc/nagios. However, Nagios 4 is installed /usr/local/nagios
2) I didn't uninstall anything before any upgrade. Everything is piled up on each other. I'm not a unix guy at all. So I wonder when I run "service nsca restart" command which version of nsca is starting ..the old one or the new one? Can it be a conflict between the two versions?
3) When I do a "ps -ef | grep nsca" i get nothing. No daemon is running.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

I made sure that the "only_from" var in "/etc/xinetd.d/nsca" has the host's IP address (i.e. the IP address of the machine that nagios is running on). I also did restarted the daemon ("/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart").Aug 26 15:59:34 emswebserver2 xinetd[2518]: FAIL: nsca address from=::ffff:<IP address of the sender>
