If you have a large forum it is simpler to move the data manually.

To do this you need to do the following:

1) make mysql dump of all the forum data.
2) make archive of all forum files (if web root == data root, don't forget to archive data root).
3) Import mysql dump on new server.
4) Extract file archive.
5) Adjust GLOBALS.php inside include/ directory to correspond with new database settings and file paths.
6) Make sure that GLOBALS.php in forum web root & web_root/adm dirs is a symlink to the one in include.
7) Login to the forum via admin interface (forum_url/adm/) and rebuild your themes.

That's it.
