Migrate Website
 
I partially(lazily) administering a site hosted on what I think is a Linux box hosting company. If I'd want to copy or move my site onto my own Linux server, how would I do that? I know the site has php, mysql used at least. I use Post Nuke and Post Nuke phpbb2 forums for managing content. The entire site is only about 50 mb. How would I copy it to another server? It will be running apache.
The URL is http://www.antiskewl.com if that will help anyone answer my question easier.

Probably the easiest thing would be to install apache, php and mysql - there is a good tutorial here:
http://lamps.efactory.de/e-index.shtml

You can then copy all of the php files etc to your local server and change the configuration if needed - such as the domain name and sql server name.

Then you can download your databases. If you don't have shell access then the simplest thing to do would probably be to install phpMyAdmin and export the data and structure:
http://www.phpmyadmin.net

Then you can just import it into your local server.
