Will it ask before connecting?  How do I keep my test/master frontend
from finding my 0.28/production backend and attempting to upgrade its
database?  Run both test frontend and backend in a VM so there's no
traffic on my home network?  Unplug the ethernet from my workstation
while testing? :-)  I want to make sure I don't mess up my production
system.
