[mythtv-users] Frontend control socket for Mythmote

[Mario Bertrand]

Hi, 

That's not critical. I don't reboot often. Just thought that someone here could have already using similar settings. I have tried inetd and xinetd, but I got broken pipe while sending commands to frontend. Iptables works fine for me. Will do some further reading when I got time. 

Thanks.
