I tried setting up mythbackend to run as a debian "service" in init.d/ but
when I do so I get errors that don't allow it to record or the frontends to
connect. the log files don't seem to show any problems though. I was
wondering if anyone else has set this up and how you did it?
thanks,
Steve
I took this from those abandoned debian packages listed in the myth
documentation. (just modified the paths)
