[mythtv-users] MythWeb running on a different machine other than backend server

I have my myth backend and frontend on the same machine.  That machine 
is inside my home firewall, so I cannot acccess mythweb from the outside 
world on that machine.  Therefore I installed mythweb on my gateway 
Linux machine, and changed the settings.php to point it to the database 
server on the myth box.  While at work I can then access MythWeb on my 
gateway at home.

I can access the listing page just fine, and schedule recordings, but 
when I try to go to the "Fix Conflicts" or "Recorded Programs" pages in 
MythWeb, I get the error "Unable to connect to mythbackend, is it 
running?".  The "Listings", "Movies", and "Scheduled Recordings" pages 
work just fine.

What is different about the conflicts and recorded programs pages?  The 
listings page is obviously connecting to the backend just fine, because 
I can schedule recordings and view the program listing.
