I would guess that you can simply export & import the MythConverg DB from
mysql.

However, then you'll want a script to rename the hostname in all appropriate
fields & tables.  I think there is a script for this in the package...

Indeed, though it's actually a new plugin/addition to the frontend.
Works great.  It's called MythSettings and you'll likely need to get it from
him as I don't thin it's anywhere public.
