i) Can your slave machine connect to the database on the new master
backend by both IP and name?
ii) Do your mysql.txt/config.xml files on the slave machine point to
the correct database host and use the correct user/password
credentials? Are you running the mythbackend process on the slave as
the same system user that you ran mythtv-setup as?
iii) Do you see any error messages in your slave mythbackend's logfile
when it is started and tries to connect to the master backend?

Cheers,
Nick
