[mythtv-users] Can't get remote frontend to connect

[Harry Devine]

I have a laptop on my LAN (wired, not wireless) that is running Ubuntu 
10.04 32-bit.  I installed mythfrontend on it for those times when I 
can't watch recordings on my combined be/fe (kids watching stuff 
usually).  Whenever I try to start mythfrontend, it comes up with a 
screen that asks me what country I'm in, then I get a "cannot login to 
database" error.

I seem to remember reading that I need to give the laptop access to the 
backend server for mysql.  I thought I did that.  I run the following 
command from a terminal window to try and connect:

hdevine at hdevine-faa:~$ mysql -u mythtv -p -h 192.168.1.200
Enter password:
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'mythtv'@'192.168.1.105' 
(using password: YES)

Using the mysql client on the master be, I printed out the values in the 
user table of the mysql database:

mysql> select Host,User,Password from user where user='mythtv'\g
+---------------+--------+-------------------------------------------+
| Host          | User   | Password                                  |
+---------------+--------+-------------------------------------------+
| localhost     | mythtv | *A56FCCF24B1776335AA9DC7ACDE28E92A20FC921 |
| %             | mythtv | *A56FCCF24B1776335AA9DC7ACDE28E92A20FC921 |
| 192.168.1.105 | mythtv | 9b9890430520b16e39afb3698ded2eb0          |
+---------------+--------+-------------------------------------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)


It looks like I have things set properly.  Is the mysql database not 
right?  Do I need to add this to the mythconverg database?  Perhaps I 
misunderstood what I was told a few months ago when I attempted this the 
first time.

Thanks,
Harry
