[mythtv-users] Getting list of connected clients from backend?

Just wondering if it is easily possible to get a list of connected
clients the backend "thinks" is connected? My backend, which normally
shuts down when no clients are connected for a period of 5 minutes, is
now counting down to zero but not shutting down.

Nothing has changed in the setup (aside from adding a slave backend to
the database before this problem started) so I'm wondering if this is
what is causing the problem. ServerHaltCommand is not assigned to a
particular machine (hostname is null).

I am also wondering whether it is possible for the master backend to
eventually have a GUI/CLI command to disconnect a client if is has
crashed/locked up. Currently the MBE still thinks it is connected,
even when it isn't and required a restart before it can connect again.

Cheers,
Nick
