got around this error by adding the backend name (like it is shown in the log 
file)
to /etc/hosts

Is this the correct behavior?

According to your log file, the mythtv backend is using the hostname
'htpc-master.local' internally (see line 535). You are better off using that 
hostname
in the MythBox settings. More than likely, you have used htpc-master.local in 
the
setup of the backend when you ran mythtv-setup.
