How is this normally done? Is it usually recommended to simply have
mythfrontend installed on the computer or do you usually need the second
computer to have the backend too (as a secondary backend)?

Not sure if there's a normal way, but if you want to avoid recompiling,
then this may work: Clone the backend system, rename the clone and give it
another IP. Then reconfigure that box as a frontend that uses the original
backend. This way you have exactly the same Myth* versions and libraries.
