server not started ????

Questions, questions.
Setup: FC3, kernel 2.6.9 Myth 0.16 installed using the
"automatic apt-get method". Frontned backend and
database all installed on single machine.
Maybe the following is relevant to all the problems I
see trying to configure and run Myth Tv - maybe not.
When I run Mythfrontend then select "Watch TV" I see
the message
2004-12-29 20:35:21 Connecting to backend server:
127.0.0.1:6543 (try 1 of 5)
Connection timed out.
I haven't changed any of the network port parameters
and should expect this loop-back port to be available
if myth backend has attempted to open it. Copy of
netstat command is at end of myth messages.
Now in the myth setup instructions I didn't see
anything that tells me how to start the backend
server. Greatest apologies if it is there - can you
point me to it?
The full messages from running mythfrontend are below

You probably should modify the Master Server settings
in the setup program and set the proper IP address.
