I think I have this set up properly then (maybe not).

Frontend config: (connects to backend's database):
nfs mounts backend:/mnt/store to /mnt/store on the frontend. Can see and play
movies and music via the nfs mount but can not see recorded programs.

Backend Config: (houses main database):

houses /mnt/store - which is where I have everything ... music,movies etc all
of which I can see on the frontend via the nfs mount

The frontend connects to the backend's database but for some reason I still
can't see recorded programs (although I can cd to /mnt/store on the frontend,
see the nuv file on the nfs mount and play it manually with xine). Could I be
having a problem with my database possbily? On the frontend it appears that I
have no problem connecting to the database:
