On my BE system, I have a /etc/mysql/conf.d directory.  There is a 
mythtv.cnf file there:

[mysqld]
#bind-address=0.0.0.0
max_connections=100

Should I edit this file?  Should I add a new file?  What should I put in 
there?

Do I still need to do the

$ mysql -u root mythconverg
mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"192.168.200.%" identified 
by "mythtv";
mysql> flush privileges;

from the wiki?
