Responding to my own post...

The mythmusic is fixed, and I've upgraded both boxes to cvs as of just
after midnight.  (I'm on PST).  I had to do some checking to ensure that
I was getting to the database okay.  That's all fine.  But I managed to
get the remote frontend to access the recorded shows *once*, and then it
immediately popped up a socket timeout message box.  I've checked the
following places:

Backend setup (IP address points to the IP configured on eth0.  So does
the Master Server IP address field.)
Backend /etc/my.cnf (Stock settings)
Backend /usr/local/share/mythtv/mysql.txt (DBHostName is set to
localhost)
Frontend /etc/my.cnf (Stock settings)
Frontend /usr/local/share/mythtv/mysql.txt (DBHostName is set to the
configured IP of eth0)

Where else should I be looking?
