[mythtv-users] slave backend can't connect to database

[Greg Baker]

I have been setting up a slave backend with a PVR-500.  I had the card
working, and the backend was running.  While trying to get all of the
tuners working simultaneously, the slave stopped connecting to the
master database.

Below is the script of a session that I think highlights the problem.  I
can manually connect to the database with the username/password in
mysql.txt, but the backend itself won't connect.  From what I know about
mySQL, this shouldn't happen.

Anybody have any idea what I'm missing?

=====================
greg at gopher:~$ cat /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
DBHostName=myth
DBUserName=mythtv
DBName=mythconverg
DBPassword=mythdb

greg at gopher:~$ mysql --host=myth --user=mythtv --password=mythdb
mythconverg
