Yes, I can on my existing backend server, but on the new one I'm building it doesn't seem to work. I attempted to follow the instructions here: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html but for some reason it wouldn't work reliably. I think there may be 2 issues: 1) Somethign about my understanding of the mysql permissions (privileges?) over the network not being right. 2) Something about having two backend servers on the network. The frontend config files aren't very network aware as they hardwire an IP address in them. Additionally there's something new with a config.xml file which I just found out about and might be conflicting with changes I made by hand to the mysql.txt file. I've just in the last few minutes done a drop on the mythconverg database and I'm starting over from scratch. Thanks, Mark
