Hi...

Almost have a mythtv system configured... except for:

I have a problem w/the slave back end.  It's log says: 
"MythSocket(83ec858:13): writeStringList: Error, invalid string list." 
every minute on the second.  Here are all 3 lines that repeat over and 
over again:

I've read all kinds of things w.r.t. this problem.  From version 
differences between the master and slave back ends (I've checked and 
they are the same):

...to too much data being sent between the two boxes (is that even 
possible??).  These boxes are 10BaseT hard wired together.

If anyone has an idea let's hear it, (please)...
