    Have a new centos7 cmm server

    Should have been an AlmaLinux server - not quite sure how I managed to cock it up

    Anyways - it has 5 websites on it

    SO I want to backup the websites (all Wordpress) erase the server - reinstall with alamlinux

    And put the websites all back

    Whats the easiest way possible ?

    And is there anyway to do a root ftp rather than a vhost ftp ?

    Tried SCP with Hetzner and internal Ips to a different vps and cant get them to connect at all (whitelisted in csf as well)

    SCP/SSH/Rsync is the easiest. Just make sure to allow outgoing/incoming ports on the source and destination.

    It's easier if you have root access, just dump and zip/tar the database and webfiles and transfer the archives to your destination.

    Push the files to your own pc or yes, spin up a cheap vps for a day or two just for that purpose.

    Easiest way with temp VPS especially if it's hourly billed, the costs for a few hours or days is minimal. And this guide still works https://community.centminmod.com/threads/centmin-mod-site-data-migration-guide.10382/ in general. Maybe a few unforeseen files/location/paths you may need to adjust. Techniques in linked guide are for commands and tools which generally apply to all linux transfers even beyond Centmin Mod.
