When you make a change to a .config file, make before and after copies, so that you may diff them; chances are good, depending on the changes, that the diff will easily apply to the other machine .configs. If not, it ought to be easy enough to do by hand on occasion. (Another option is to programmatically modify a single .config file based on some rules for the changes using a tool such as perl or sed.) -- The Bill of Rights: 7 out of 10 rights haven't been sold yet!
