Server Migration

I just completed moving this site from one hosting provider to another and the whole process took just over 45 minutes. That's not too bad. Here's how I did it:
  1. Install MT on new server
  2. Move all templates from old server to new server
  3. Using MT, recreate paths to all template files and set all preferences identical to inital installation
  4. Export all entries from old server. Import those entries into new server
All that's left to do now is to change DNS records for lastupdated.net to point to the new server. That shouldn't be too hard as soon as I find those passwords.
