[mythtv-users] Old topic rehashed - X-less backend?

[Tom Wardill]

Try checking whether mysql is only binding to 127.0.0.1. It's in my.conf (or
my.cnf) somewhere.
I'm running a gentoo backend, and had to comment out the bind = 127.0.0.1
line to allow external access to the mysql server. The grant the privilegs
and everything should run okay.
The  bind line can be altered to make it more secure, but I'm not too
bothered about it. YMMV.
Hope this helps.
Tom

Hmm. Then something is evidently wrong with my perms (grant all on
mythconverg to mythtv at mythtvbox identified by "mythtvpassword; was what I
did IIRC), or it's looking for the wrong port or something. I'll delve into
the logs later.
