No, I would disagree with that.  If you want the backend to be
accessible to an external frontend, you normally want the address in
config.xml to be the external address of the PC.  It does work if the
address in backend PC's config.xml files is localhost, but then you
can not just copy the config.xml file to another PC and have it work
there when you tell mythfrontend to use it.  I always get caught by
that if I use localhost in config.xml.  And if the database is
supposed to be accessible from the PC's external IP address,
connecting to it that way on the backend PC is a good check that it
actually is externally accessible.
