[mythtv-users] optimize_mythdb not working for remote database

I've searched the archives and Google, and can't seem to find relevant
info for this.
I've recently moved my mysql database to a separate machine to enhance
performance (or, stop video stuttering). Now I'm noticing that my
nightly optimize_mythdb.pl cron job is failing because it's trying to
connect to localhost. I have MythTV working fine, my local mysql.txt
file has "DBHostName=remotehost" at the very top, and yet it still
pings localhost. Anyone know how to fix this? I considering editing
the Perl script, but it looks like it leverages the Myth perl bindings
and I have a feeling it's just a setup issue on my end of things. I
would think it should be able to find out the correct mysql host from
the backend or the mysql.txt file.
Thanks!
