works fine on a different machine as long as it can see the backend. 
Just edit settings.php apropriately. Here is the section you have to 
modify.

	//
	//	How to access the database
	//

	$db_host 	= "localhost";
	$db_username 	= "mythtv";
	$db_password 	= "mythtv";
	$db_dbname	= "mythconverg";


Also make sure that in the mythtv setup you supply the real backend ip 
address rather than "localhost" or 127.0.0.1
best,
Cedar
