Have you allowed remote connections to your MySQL server? >From http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html
NOTE: The "no security" option is very dangerous unless you're in a controlled environment. This example has no security at all, and allows access from any host. $ mysql -u root mythconverg mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%" identified by "mythtv"; mysql> flush privileges; For a more secure setup, you can restrict which machines or subnets have access. If you have a complete DNS system operational, you could do the following: $ mysql -u root mythconverg mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%.mydomain.com" identified by "mythtv"; mysql> flush privileges; Finally, if you just want to restrict by IP subnet: $ mysql -u root mythconverg mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"192.168.1.%" identified by "mythtv"; mysql> flush privileges; Paul >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/16/05 5:34 PM >>> I just upgraded my server and frontend to ver. 0.18.1.
