Answer 1

You can try the Hudson Remote API for this kind of task (setting up an Hudson project).

See this tutorial for instance, and remember you can display the help quite easily:

java -jar hudson-cli.jar -s http://your_Hudson_server/ help

So, to copy a job:

java -jar hudson-cli.jar -s http://your_Hudson_server/ copy-job myjob copy-myjob
