[mythtv-users] mac osx frontend and mysql

[Todd Houle]

You need to give access on your backend Mysql database to your Mac  
(or any other frontend).  My internet connection is down right now so  
I can't look it up, but check out Tips-n-Tricks under Jarrod's web  
page.  It has something about mysql access.    mysqladmin grant user  
mythtv *.% on mythconverg...   I forget, but run that command on your  
backend.
