Is there any issues I should know about when moving the forum to a new server? the DB is already on a different server. I'm just going to move the files. Basically tar them up, ftp them over and then unpack them.

Thanks,
Jay

You'll need to update GLOBALS.php after the move, the login as the admin and rebuild the theme.

You need to update variables to reflect new database settings, file paths, etc...
