Yes -  I have two storage directories for each storage group except my DB
Backups group (which only has one directory).

Turns out I did have the folders also locally defined on the MBE's
frontend, but that doesn't seem to be the issue.  After I remove the local
folders from my server's frontend, I'm still able to see the art locally,
but not remotely.

One observation that I've noted is that the address used for the metadata
differs on the server's frontend vs. the remote frontends.  On the server,
the addresses are along the lines of myth://Coverart@hostname while remote
addresses are myth://Coverart@ipaddress

All frontends are set up to address the MBE by hostname, so I'm confused
why this dialog changes the address.  When I change the address on remote
frontends to myth://Coverart@hostname, the storage directories appear.  I
will file a bug report.


Thank you,
Rob
