Migrating an SVN server to new machine

Hi,
If we were to move a subversion server to a new machine, the URLs inside
all the working copies would obviously have to change. Is there any way
to just "fix" the server URLs inside the working copies or do we need to
check out all the projects again after migrating the server to the new
machine (for many reasons, we cannot name the new machine the same name
as the old one). I tried to open the wc.db file in an SQLite viewer to
see if it was a simple setting but this file doesn't seem to open
despite the fact it appears to be an SQLite 3 database.

Eg:
http://server1/svn/projectname/ > http://server2/svn/projectname/

I realise now we should have a used a subversion specific URL for the
working copies which would make moving the service much easier - like
svnserver or something (the URLs are used internally only - hence lack
of extension).

Many thanks,
Nick
