It seemed that following the DNS change NTL’s servers were the last in the world to pick it up. Everyone I asked could see the site on its new server long before me but I’m back up and running now.

It was relatively pain free however it turned out that the media I uploaded since using WordPress is referenced in the MySQL database using the full static path to the homedir on the webserver and I had to manually update these in the database. I don’t know how you would go on if you had loads of entries.

Unless, of course, I’m missing something?
