Just make sure the Myth box isn't connected directly to the 'net.
Yeah, I know. If they get through the firewall, I'd be worried
about more than just the mythtv box...
Thanks for the replies. I eventually got it working last night.
I'm ashamed to say it was as simple as a mistyped password.
It was set up with one of those auto-generated uncrackable but
also unmemorable passwords. When I connected via the mysql command
line client, I cut and paste the password directly from
an image of /etc/mythtv/msql.conf from an ssh session into the
mythtv backend. That worked. When I configured the frontend,
it ran fullscreen and I typed the password into the gui from my
(flawed) memory.
But, on the bright side, it's a better password than just "mythtv"--it
was even keeping you out for a while. :)
Glad you got it working.
Mike
