Migrating to a site with a temporary URL

http://drupal.org

Hi

I am in the process of moving to a new host thats on Apache servers rather than zeuss so I can have the sheer luxury of clean url's ;-)

My problem is I'm lost in working out how to adjust my settings to point to the correct place on the new set up. Its a bit more complicated than any guidance I can find on drupal.org

On my old host all my drupal files (including the sites folder) were at the top directory level. On this site I am told to place everything one level down into my public_html level folder. The support person says they don't know drupal but its not working because there are no php files inside the public_html folder

Status at present is;

1. My current site is still running www.davislangdon.net.au
2. I have a temporary url for my new site until I have everything working and then I can point my domain to the new host
3. I have copied and uploaded via ftp all files to new host
4. I have exported / imported the database via phpmyadmin to the new host
5. I have adjusted settings.php to point to the new database with correct new username, password domain and location (as advised by host support person)
6. The temp url http://119.82.148.7/~davislan/ isn't showing my drupal site just the placeholder text from the host
