Well, given the fact you have a fairly dated version of the forum running there are primarily 2 ways to do the move:

1) Make an archive of all the forum data (SQL & on disk) and copy this archive to the new server. On the server then adjust the GLOBALS.php inside the include directory with new paths & database settings and make sure that GLOBALS.php in forum www root and adm/ dir are symlinks to the actual file inside include directory.

2) Upgrade current forum to the latest release and make a datadump of the forum. Then install the same version of the forum on the new server and use the import feature to import the data from the datadump.
