assuming you are using MySQL....

mysqldump [dbname] > dbname.sql -u [db_username] -p

This will give you a file called dbname.sql. On the second machine you use this
file to create the second db...

mysqladmin create db_two -u [db2_username] -p

mysql db_two < dbname.sql -u [db_two] -p

hope this helps
