Yes, I run this: matt at magic:~$ mysql -u mythtv -h localhost -p mythconverg
And enter the password, and then I'm in.

I found 3 config.xml's:
/etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml
/home/matt/.mythtv/config.xml
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/config.xml
The only one with any relevant info is the /usr/share file which contains
the following:
<Configuration>
<UPnP>
<MythFrontend>
<DefaultBackend>
<LocalHostName>my-unique-identifier-goes-here</LocalHostName>
<DBHostName>127.0.0.1</DBHostName>
<DBUserName>mythtv</DBUserName>
<DBPassword>5V1RHuQt</DBPassword>
<DBName>mythconverg</DBName>
<DBPort>0</DBPort>
</DefaultBackend>
</MythFrontend>
</UPnP>
</Configuration>
I changed a couple of the lines to the following:
<LocalHostName>magic</LocalHostName>
<DBHostName>magic.jerkychew.local</DBHostName>
And so far it hasn't helped. Do I need to restart anything for the changes
to take effect?

If you know Perl it's not bad. I can barely keep up with XML files, but I'm
trying to learn as I go. Thanks for the help thus far and any more would be
greatly appreciated.
