For my own reference and notes to others who might be interested some of the issues involved in transferring muninn:
-The new server, a reseller account at bestreseller.com has Fantastico which can install all sorts of things including PostNuke (which the Muninn blog runs on)
-I installed a default PostNuke install, no prob
-took me a while to figure out how to do the mysqldump on the old muninn.net server since there is no control panel and the database settings are a little funky. A quick email to netnation.com gave me the command to run from SSH:
mysqldump -h db -P 4000 -u user_name user_name -p> myfile.txt
-dumped my old database to a file, downloaded it, and used the cpanel backup feature on the new server to upload the database to the new server
-changed the config file for the Postnuke installation that fantastico made to point to my old, uploaded database
-things worked great (same version of PostNuke as was running over at the netnation account) the blog was up and running immediately.
-Gallery and Icons still needed to be moved over.
-The gallery was a pain with permissions after the transfer, the modules/gallery/albums/ stuff had to have a lot of permissions changed to prevent various PHP errors from displaying, think it is working now.
