KDE applications use a configuration framework that allows multiple search
directories and merging of settings found in files in any of them.
See section on file hierarchy here [1].
In your case you could configure the setup you need once through the GUI, then
locate the configuration file and install it into a "global" location.
Any instance of krfb will find it there and use those settings unless the
user's local configuration says otherwise [2].
Given you mentioned "number of systems" and "recurring a lot" I wager the
guess that this is a multi workstation setup scenario like at a company or
organisation.
In which case it might be of interest to subscribe to the KDE Enterprise
mailinglist [3] which is a forum for system administrators to share
experiences with their setups, etc.
Cheers,
Kevin

[2] This can even be disabled, as the configuration framework allows more
global files to restrict what local files can overwrite. See also [1]
