Thanks! There is already a small MW page set on the server we're
transferring to. Is it possible to simply import the contents of the
dump into that database? Name clashes between old pages and the newer
pages are not a problem, the two sites use disjoint names.
No problem with keeping the old server running, the intent is to modify
some pages so we can then move them back over very quickly by copying
and pasting. The new server is just internal to the company.
Thanks,
Ken

server-directorys in localsettings.php; dont forget to copy individuell skins
and images-folders from your old server.
And keep your old machine running until new new works fine!
