is sending messages to your mythtv box. Is your port open to the
internet? Port 6543 is normally the MythTV port. You can see these
errors if you run telnet localhost 6534 and then type random junk
into telnet. Each line of stuff you type will be reported as a
protocol error in mythbackend (unless you by chance type a valid
MythTV command :).</p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thanks Peter. This is interesting as I block port 6543 access from outside my network - so that means the rouge client is inside somehow. I'll have to play around with some host firewall rules and VLAN firewall rules to better determine the source.</div><div><br></div><div>Would enabling more detailed mythtv log help show a source for the socket connection?</div></div></div>
