Comment (by wagnerrp):

 Does that mean in the Netherlands, you can't be bothered to properly
 explain your problem? If you were using the default config.xml
 '''verbatim''', as stated, you would have had the line...

     <LocalHostName>my-unique-identifier-goes-here</LocalHostName>

 ... which is specially interpreted by the code reading that file as having
 no defined identifier. It '''should''' say the LocalHostName value is
 empty, and it '''should''' go on to use he default, which is the system
 hostname.

 As for your second issue, having no IP defined is an invalid configuration
 for a backend, and it will automatically terminate. Following from your
 previous issue, if the selected profile (or LocalHostName) is incorrect,
 it would be pulling your configuration from the wrong profile, and explain
 why it would refuse to operate. Is there any chance you ran ''mythtv-
 setup'' and ''mythbackend'' under different user accounts, or otherwise
 different environments, perhaps as a result of the behavior of your init
 scripts, such that they would end up pulling their config.xmls from
 separate directories?
