You couldn't have possibly chosen 172.32.99.x for your IP addresses. 
That address range is internet routeable, which means the only way you 
would get it is if you were assigned it by your service provider, or 
otherwise purchased it from a numbers authority. If you configured that 
address space as your internal private network, you have a broken 
network configuration. The range you were likely trying to hit is the 
range...

172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255

If you fix your network to fall within that range, and leave the IP 
settings blank on your dedicated frontend, it will automatically listen 
on the proper address, and everything should "just work".

If on the other hand you are actually running your MythTV system on the 
internet, are not behind a NAT, and you were in fact assigned a number 
of addresses in the 172.32.99.x range, you will need to manually force 
mythfrontend to listen on the correct address through those IP settings 
in mythtv-setup. By default, running MythTV open to the internet is a 
dangerous configuration, so MythTV will not do so unless explicitly told 
to do so by the user.
