Did you check mysql to see if it is listening for external connections?
In my.cnf it would be the bind_address.
bind-address        = 192.168.2.6    (Assuming that is your frontend,
which it appears to be).
Then, if that fails, check your mysql account for mythtv at yourfrontendIP 
(put your IP there).
There is a nice article on that, though as I recall, that should already
be wildcarded in in later versions.
