I'm running mythweb on a remote machine (not the masted backend), when I delete a program through mythweb it crashes the master backend. Any suggestions?

Well, not a fix, but a workaround:
I also *access* mythweb from another machine, my main webserver, and I have it setup so that webserver acts like a proxy and forwards all requests to myth transparently. Apache is cool! I do:


# You'll need to load mod_rewrite. For me this is:
# LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rewrite.so
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/prot/myth/mythweb/(.*) http://myth/mythweb/$1 [P]

(The URL that I access *on my webserver* is e.g. http://mainwebserver/prot/myth/mythweb/ and that just works now)

And then protect everything under /prot with a password:
        <Location /prot>
                Deny from all
                Allow from 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
                AuthType Basic
                AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htpasswd.users
                AuthName "protected directory"
                Require valid-user
                Satisfy any
        </Location>


Then as far as mythweb is concerned its running locally, while your browser thinks its accessing the main webserver. When you're running from your own LAN (192.168.0.X) you do it without password, but from "the outside" - you'll be requested to enter your password. Maybe that wasn't what you were looking for, but its worked flawlessly for me, and I hope this helps you too!
