I am taking a look at what is going on here.  I have set up my test PC
to use IPv6 addresses for MythTV and mythtv-status runs fine from
root.  But from my mythfrontend user, I get the error.  So could you
please try running mythtv-status from root and see if it works from
there.  If it does, you should be able to run balance_storage.sh from
root also - it is designed to work from there just as well as from a
mythtv group user.
