WebSites Migration

Hi,

Due to high system utilisations, I'd like to move
a bunch of websites from one server to another
(those servers use CPanel/WHM). I've got root access
to both. What is the easiest way to do this?

Some websites use MySQL database, mailing-lists, subdomains.
Some use everyone.net services (so MX modification).

After creating the accounts on the new server, what next?
I've tried
[list=1][*]tar and gzip /home/username/ and /var/lib/mysql/[user-database][*]move the compressed files to new server[*]decompress them[*]update the /var/named/domain.com.db[*]update the nameservers for the domain[*]Tell my client to use the new account with new pasword.[/list=1]

[The migration can't move the userid/password for MySQL database.
I just ask the client to recreate it].

As you may see, the process is quite long and time consuming.
Is there any shortcuts for this?

Thanks for your ideas..

Anto.
