 I run Mythbuntu and currently have 0.23+fixes24710 installed. My MBE has
 three directories listed for its "Default" StorageGroup. I setup a SBE
 that had no directories matching the storagegroups on the MBE. When the
 mythbackend process on the SBE was started I started getting
 "writeStringList: Error, invalid string list." errors on the SBE. There
 were also some socket errors on the MBE. The longer the SBE was running
 like this the slower the MBE got. I finally tracked down the source of the
 error and fixed the storage groups on the SBE. A better error message is
 attached as a patch against mainserver.cpp. I do not know if this is the
 best place for it.
