Hi Dharma,

You can use the Promotion Management section of the CMC to do this.  You can either create a LCMBIAR file or do a live system to system promotion of content.

The Administrators guide should cover this here: 

Chapter 15 - Promotion Management

http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sbo41/en/sbo41sp4_bip_admin_en.pdf

15.5 and 15.6 might be what you are looking to do.

On gotcha you might run into is the fact that the both machines will need to be able to resolve the IP address to the correct CMS name.  This is sometimes and issue with our client tools when the server is on UNIX.  If the Windows CMS cannot resolve the UNIX IP Address to the same name as the CMS, then it might fail to connect through promotion management.  If this happen, just creating hosts file entries should resolve the issue.

Thanks
