It's in the Mythtv Documentation. I can't remember the name of the file but you have to change the bind address from 127.0.0.1 (or what ever it is) to your IP. I had the same problem with Gentoo.

Check your mysql startup files and make sure that they allow network access. On Mandrake (and Redhat, I think) that is set in /etc/sysconfig/mysql, but I don't know about Gentoo.
