I have just started working with DNN 2 months ago.  Our company wants to move their current Frontpage website to DNN.  The previous webmaster setup a test server with DNN and transferred over about 200 of the content pages from Frontpage during his testing (not sure how this was done as he left company and had no notes).  I have also been testing with this test environment and it has become quite messy.

I have just finished setting up the new server we will be using as our webserver and installed a new instance of DNN.  I am wondering if there is an easy way to move the 200 good content pages over to the new instance of DNN from the old test environment as I am not familiar with Frontpage so don't know if there is an easy way to transfer them from Frontpage.   Most of the content is just HTML modules with links, images and attached files.

Any help you can provide to make my life easier would be appreciated.  Would hate to have to do an export/import of all the pages individually or have to recreate them.

I would backup site files and database and restore to the new location.
Make sure to adjust both connection strings in web.config and at least one record in portalAlias table in the database points to the new domain address.
