First thing, you have backups right? :)

If you are running MythWeb on your BE, you can change the settings in the
"settings" option.  Otherwise, you'll need to directly edit your database
on your BE.

Using your mysql tool of choice, verify/change settings in the
"mythconverg" database, "settings" table.

Keys to note:
MasterServerIP and BackendServerIP.

That's for the BE, now for the FE, check out the ~/.mythtv/config.xml and
mysql.txt then change the DBHostName key if needed.


Hope this helps.
