Check the front page of mythtvsetup on the backend, you'll see 2 IP
address settings - one's for the IP of the master backend, the other
for the IP of the local backend. When I had the identical problem
migrating from a single FE/BE to a split system, I'd forgotten to
change one of these from 127.0.0.1 to the LAN IP.
