[Vpn-help] transfer all settings to a new machine

[Harondel J. Sibble]

(Matthew sorry for sending that to you direct, I had meant to send it to the 
list instead)

Okay, I have 2.2 working nicely on my Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS laptop, I have a 
client running the same version of Ubuntu on her laptop, what's the easiest 
of getting the working configuration from my laptop onto her's remotely 
(ssh)?

Can I

a) copy the entire directory I used to compile the software from my machine 
to hers and assuming she has the necessary gui prerequisites, just run make 
install and have it work

b) install all prerequisites on her machine, do a full compile and install 
and copy the necessary config files over.

Which brings up the next question, on my laptop, I have her credentials 
setup, short of using the export/import feature from the Shrew client, can I 
just copy over the config files holding the tunnel info, restart iked and 
ikea and be golden?

Or is there a better way of doing this?
