A bit more than this would be required. You will also need some of the
files in the common directory (e.g. templates, bad_words file). And of
course any necessary configuration files.

This plan also requires that the internal and external systems are very
similar in terms of both hardware architecture and installed software.

No. The path to the configuration file is hard coded into htsearch for
security reasons. However you could recompile the ht://Dig package on
the machine you have control over and specify a configuration file
location that would correspond to a directory that you have access to
on the external server.
