My setup is getting stranger all of the time.  I just did an upgrade of 
the backend and frontend again, via atrpms, and now this is the output 
from mythfrontend.  I don't understand why it is trying to contact 
127.0.0.1  since  this machine only has a frontend running on it, nor 
can I figure why it is adding the extra / in front of the file name.
