I actually found accidentally when I entered the search string "navigation"
but if you do a search for "mythtv" it should be the only hit.

when I try to connect to the frontend with the iPhone app, it says
"connection dropped" and when I try to telnet from a terminal window on
another machine on my network, it says "connection refused."  I installed
"telnetd" on the machine, and restarted it, but I have done nothing else to
"enable" telent.  I can't say that I have much experience with telnet, so if
you have any pointers here, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

 Josh
