Copying the ant installation from another machine should be fine. Ant is platform independant and self contained within $ANT_HOME, so this should work fine. Check to make sure you have the dependant jars in $ANT_HOME/lib. See the dependency section of the manual to find out what dependencies you need for the tasks you are using.
