<div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">In mythtv-setup, you can set the address of the server and I have chosen<br>the network card that serves the computers in the house (as they were my
<br>first myth frontends). Is there any way to specify two network<br>addresses? If not, is there another way I can make this work, or do you<br>think I have missed something more fundamental?</blockquote><div><br><div>No, I believe this is expected. AFAIK, the backend will only bind to a single IP.
<br><br>On my system, I have two networks as follows:<br><br>House LAN (<a href="http://192.168.1.0/24">192.168.1.0/24</a>) ---- Myth Backend ---- Myth LAN (<a href="http://192.168.2.0/24">192.168.2.0/24</a>)<br><br>With mythbackend binding to
<a href="http://192.168.2.1">192.168.2.1</a> and <a href="http://192.168.1.4">192.168.1.4</a>. So, in order to allow machines on the house LAN to be able to see the Myth box, I set up static routes on the house boxes to
<a href="http://192.168.2.0/24">192.168.2.0/24</a> through <a href="http://192.168.1.4">192.168.1.4</a>. With that done, I simply point the FEs in the House LAN to <a href="http://192.168.2.1">192.168.2.1</a>, and everything just works.
<br><br>It does, of course, require setting up the routing tables on any machine that will be running the FE, but that's a minor inconvenience that only needs to be done once.<br><br>As an alternative solution, I could've probably used IP chains to do port forwarding on the backend box from
<a href="http://192.168.1.4">192.168.1.4</a> to <a href="http://192.168.2.1">192.168.2.1</a>, but since I haven't looked into this, I can't elaborate on the details. Modifying the routing seems like a less hackish solution. :)
