Not really Hobbit specific, but ok ... 

The BBNT client has an option to perform a "silent install". It's a long
time since I worked with it, but I think it is described in either the
README or you can find it described on the BBNT mailing list archive.

As for the configuration, this is stored inside a subtree in the
registry. So you can export this tree to a .reg file, and then just
import this into each systems registry DB.
