[mythtv-users] MythTV needs to listen on 2 ports

[John Moore (Compucom Systems Inc)]

2 subnets????

I have far more than that... lol  To fully understand my network I would need to send a viso drawning.  Think Enterprise level.  Mainly for the learning experience.  Started in college and it grew.

A DMZ where I keep all my servers VM an Physical, Parents Network, Kids Network with limited wifi, Secured Wifi specifically for guest.  An looking at adding a media network only for LiveTV.  Parents Wifi is setup with Kerberos Authentication much the same way Cisco does with Active Directory (with where I work, can guess how I learned to set that up... lol)

Local DHCP server located in DMZ with the linux Router also acting as a DHCP Relay server to redirect all dhcp request to the DHCP server in the DMZ.

Along the same with Squid Proxy an Dans Guardain.

LDAP authentication for everything.  An LDAP integrated DNS an DHCP configuration settings.

Almost all my Servers are running SLES 11sp3 with the exception of my new Media server which is Mythbuntu.

XEN Server (running SLES) hosting all of my Infrastructure server VMs.  10 in all to distribute an force myself to learn about High Availabilty an load balancing.

Lets not forget about Nagios monitoring.

Cisco 24 port 10/100 Layer 3 switch with 4 gbics an 2 additional 1G ports.  Stackable.  An broken into segments of the different networks I need.

Almost all my clients are OpenSuSE or Apple OSX.  Any Windows needs have been vitualized.  At this time no Windows VMs are needed.  WINE an CrossOver do a pretty good job.

At this time, my physical servers include HP DL360's with P4s an 2 SATA drives in a RAID 10.

Its just the dang multi media setup which is killing me.  An my lack of ability to purchase more hardware for at least another couple of months.   If my wife would not have imposed this purchasing freeze on me till after the holidays, I would be ok with moving my long term goals to now.  But I need it up an running so she can enjoy it, then sell her on why I need/want another $2k worth of infrastructure hardware.

Morning,
I am a new user to the is group.  And ran into a brick wall trying to understand an use MythTV the way its intended in my network.  Which I will admit is a bit complex.

I am running a MythBuntu server (ver 14.04.1) running MythTV 0.27.  This server has 2 network cards on 2 different networks with static IPs set...
192.168.2.0/26 (Parents Network)
192.168.3.0/26 (Kids Network)

What I am trying to find out is if it's possible for the MythTV backend service to listen on more than 1 port.  Depending on which network I have it configured to listen too, will depend on which clients can connect.  Not just the SQL DB.  But the service which uses ports 6544 & 6543 that the clients connect to.

After using grep to look thru the entire file structure to locate where the backend setting was, I decided to install MySQL Workbench an found the backend setting in the SETTING Table in Mythconverg DB.  And it appears that since there is no Primary Key, MySQL Workbench can only open the DB in Read-Only.  Meaning I cannot make changes to it.

I am really frustrated by all this.

I just have to say that you are 10X geakier than me.   I would tell me wife about your two subnets except that I would be sure to get that glazed over look.
