Likely you either a) have broken IP address configuration, resulting in 
your backends listening on the wrong interface (or, at least, failing to 
listen on the right one) or b) old Storage Group overrides for hosts 
that no longer exist.

I have a strong feeling it's a) , and you should see information about 
what interface mythbackend is listening on somewhere in the mythbackend 
log files.
