What instructions? Are you referring to the GRANT line? I did that yesterday. As for the mythbackend server IP, I set that two or three days ago. It's in the database correctly: mysql> select * from settings WHERE value = 'BackendServerIP'; +-----------------+-------------+----------+ | value | data | hostname | +-----------------+-------------+----------+ | BackendServerIP | 192.168.1.3 | camille | +-----------------+-------------+----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) What else do I need to do? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
