If you're doing a rename, you can use the restore script, as described 
at 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore#Change_the_hostname_of_a_MythTV_frontend_or_backend 
, however, if you want to use the exact same configuration you've 
already set on one frontend for another frontend (or more), you'll need 
jams's script.
