[mythtv-users] Frontends can't find database, can't connect

[Michael Jones]

Here's my my.cnf file..


[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
set-variable = key_buffer = 16M
set-variable = table_cache = 128
set-variable = sort_buffer = 2M
set-variable = myisam_sort_buffer_size = 8M

[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/var/lib

[safe_mysqld]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid


I haven't had time to check the options within the database yet..

But..  Is there anything that should be here that isn't?
