Warcraft has been pretty clear.
Unfortunately for us, we need to broadcast the mouse from one screen to the same relative position on another screen.
If we go from box A (top left of screen A) to box B (bottom right of screen B), that kind of behavior of the mouse is bannable.

The easiest solution is to run warcraft at the same resolution on all screens. You can render it at whatever size you want. But if all copies are 800x600 (pick a resolution), then 243x198 will be the same position on all screens. That assumes you will position your Grid/Healbot/Vuhdo in the same position on all clients.

actually I setup a third one for tri boxing and now it works fine, the tow windows share my smaller monitor as if resized by pwnboxer and now everything is where it should be.

secondly the only problem im having is focus because for some reason (probably disabled addon) I cant see the rest of the party, and I can only focus on one (may have been a change but I had multiple focus back in the day).

I realized today that I can actually drive from the back of the group as in A is my main and B and C are slaves, A>>B>>C and C is driving from the back, its really helpful in gathering quests because the group objective share is buggy on my realm.

Each of my 5 games is running at the same resolution but different window sizes; the mouse position does not get reproduced...

I guess IS Boxer is unique then.
I know it runs on Inner Space, which resides between Windows and whatever game is running, so it can make a game think a given window has focus (like LotRO) when in fact it does not, which is why you can box multiple accounts on one PC for that game and it doesn't work for other boxing options.

With IS Boxer, every window is at whatever wow resolution (game frame size) you have it set to, but is also rendered at the resolution of the largest window (so windows thinks you have five screens which are all 1650x1080 or whatever).

I don't see any other boxing option go the route of rendering at the maximum resolution for all windows; at least no one but Lax has taken that approach so far. The solution with HKN then would seem to be, set all of your monitors to the highest resolution that the lowest monitor can handle. The highest resolution that all monitors can support. Not sure that the game would look the best on all screens, but functionally that would work, and accounts would not be in jeopardy from broadcasting from the current location to an arbitrary (not-exactly-the-same) position on another window.

I solved the problem!

In the video settings, under advanced, there is a checkbox that says UI Scale. If that is checked, the UI will scale no matter what the size of the window is. That was the problem. The different windows are of different sizes and with the different addons being of different scales the mouse was not clicking where I wanted to be for repeater regions.

Once I figured this out, the mouse broadcasting is finally reproduced across all 5 windows
