I recommend setting up a basic drupal 6.9 site on the new server. Make sure all of apache mods and special features such as clean URLs are working.
Then utilize the backup and migrate module.

Also, try going to http://newhost.com/index.php?q=user and see if that comes up

This sounds like it could be a clean urls issue. Did you get the .htaccess file copied over? Does your new host support .htaccess files and mod_rewrite for apache?

I tried moving Drupal 6.9 from one host to another and it did not work.
I did a 'mysqldump -u root -p --opt drupal69 > drupal69.sql
I copied the entire Drupal69 directory under my htdocs to my the new host's htdocs directory
I created the DB on the new host and then I installed the dump using the following command 'mysql -u root -p drupal69 < drupal69.sql'
I edit the config file and changed the '10.100.5.126' ip address to
'localhost' and set the password to the correct password. (the user is the same)
I am able to see the main page but when I try to log in, I get the error page not found for htdocs/drupal69/user.
What are the proper steps tp follow?
Thanks,
Nestor
