Hi Phil,

Did you get anywhere with this?  My backend seems to be crashing just
once a day with similar messages in the log.  This has only happened
since I replaced my motherboard, before then the backend was solid as
a rock!

2007-07-14 03:07:57.484 Connecting to backend server:
192.168.0.100:6543 (try 1 of 5)
2007-07-14 03:07:57.498 Connection timed out.

2007-07-14 04:29:31.588 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost

Any hints as to how you may have fixed the problem?

How can the backend have a problem connecting to itself?  Is some
other process stealing that port?

Ubuntu Fiesty, Intel box, myth 0.20-fixes.

Cheers,
