Ehm, tar it up on source, untar it on destination. More or less. You
could remove the caches, if you'd like to reduce the sice of the
tarball, but it isn't necessary. When you have it in place on the new
server, point your browser to it and do a "<url>/doku.php?do=check" to
see any problems. Should work without remake.
Note that this "magic" is why  one shouldn't use external links to
internal stuff in a DW. Internal links are so much cleaner:)
