Another thing to check is firewalling. Make sure that if your backend is running a firewall (iptables, etc.) that port 3306 is open and available. <br><br>Also, you should check to see what the permissions are for access to the mythconverg SQL table. The mythtv user will need to have access to log on from a different hostname/IP address. You might need to use a command like this (in mysql):
<br><br>GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mythconverg.* TO mythtv@'remotehost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';<br><br>Where 'remotehost' is the IP address or hostname of your frontend and 'password' is the password you want to use for access.

Check to see if you can reach the backend MySQL first. It will do<br>what you are describing if you cant.<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">
