You will also need to look at /etc/defaults/rc.conf to know what $hostid_file is. kern.hostuuid and kern.hostid are generated on-the-fly when the system does not have /etc/hostid. You can reset this simply by removing the file and rebooting, or by running "/etc/rc.d/hostid reset". I do not believe a reboot will be needed after doing the latter, but you will almost certainly have to restart daemons. If you read the above script it should (mostly) make sense. Likely root cause: When you made these two systems, you probably mistakingly copied /etc/hostid from one to the other (or you copied /etc from one to the other).
