OK try doıng it this way. Make a tarball of your entıre home directory. To do this: type

tar -cvvf home.tar home/
Then use wget on the new server to copy the tarball by executing:

# wget your IP or domain /home.tar
Now uncompress the fıles by usıng this command

tar xvf home.tar
Now create the sites agaın ın cpanel and then use these commands to copy fıles to the correct folders:

cd path to your tarball/home.tar
mv *,* /home/sıtename
That should do it!
