I'm using CFSocket to build a server program. Is there any way to refuse new connections instead of accept()-ing them?

No. This is a 'feature' of the underlying sockets API. The kernel will always accept connections for a listening socket (as long as its within the backlog specified when you call listen). The best you can do is close the unwanted connection once you know about it.
