I'm pretty sure this is not an ignorable error.  If mythbackend isn't
listening on 6543, then when a remote mythfrontend connects nothing
is going to happen.

Do you already have a copy of mythbackend running, locking out the
port?  What happens when you run the netstat command?  Do you see
something bound to 6543?

I'd recommend a killall mythbackend first.
