[mythtv-users] Mythtv vers 0.18.1.20050523-1 Mythfrontend gives Unexpected response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION

[Warren Roberts]

I just upgraded to Fedora Core 4 and installed myth-suite.  The frontend
and backend are the same version but the frontend gives a Unexpected
response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION error.  The master backend and frontend
are running on the same machine.  The mysql database is running on a
separate machine and the database contains data from my prior
installation of mythtv (I didn't rebuild the db).  The previous version
was 0.18 as well so there "shouldn't" be a conflict with the db.

Can anyone help?

Here are the verbose logfiles from the front and backends
