MySQL Migration Toolkit is the right choice for this task. However, keep in
mind that running the Migration Toolkit on a third PC will move all the
data twice: once from the source machine to the machine with the MT and
then again from there to the target machine. Hence if there is a lot of
data I strongly recommend to start MT on the target machine.

This works however only if that machine is a Windows box, because currently
MT is only available for Windows. We are working on the Linux and MacOS
port already, but this will still take a while until it is ready.
