I learned this the hard way. You will need to contact handle.net to
re-generate a new sitebundle.zip for your site. handle.net does not
rely on DNS names and uses the IP address of the machine. So either
keep the same IP of the current machine if you are going to do this as
you describe above. Or contact them with the IP address of the new
machine.
