Ted already pointed you to Tramp. Let me add that syncing only .newsrc
might not be enough, depending on the features you use. For example,
drafts will be saved locally, not on the IMAP server. Therefore, you
should usually also sync ~/News and ~/Mail. I've written up an Emacs
Lisp function some time ago for doing this, via rsync. See

http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/GnusSync

for details.
