Migrating Sharepoint
Just migrated our two sharepoint sites to the new server. After a bit of digging I found an easy way to do it.
Both our servers are on the same domain so I didn't need to manually create new user details. So here is what I did:
1) On the new server create a new web site
2) upgrade this site to have sharepoint services installed (don't visit the site for now as it will ask for a new template)
3) On the old server run this command (changing the details that suit you)
4) Copy the fwp files that are created to the new server (I had a few as the sites were large)
5) On the new server run this command (changing the details that suit you)
6) Login and test your site, you will need to add the users back into sharepoint.
7) Update DNS etc
8) Shutdown the old sharepoint server
