No luck, I got the exact error message described here:

http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html#ss9.1

"*NOTE*: If you modify the 127.0.0.1 address and use a "real" IP address,
you must use real IP addresses in both fields, otherwise your frontend
machines will generate "Unexpected response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION" errors."

No, I'm not.

Thanks for the reply!
