On the old server, dump the database:
mysqldump -u root -p --single-transaction --routines DBNAME > joomla.sql
Copy the files while preserving permissions and timestamps:
rsync -avz --progress /var/www/joomla/ user@newserver:/var/www/joomla/
On the new server, create the database and user, then import:
