Backing up IIS5 settings? Please assist

[Olli1009]

Hi guys,

We are reinstalling our IIS5 server (Windows 2000 server) and moving it to a different machine.

I need to know whether there's a way to backup IIS 5 server, what i am mostly interested in is backing up the IIS, including all the websites and all the configuration inside - because i need to move it to a different server.
I know there's a thing called metabase backup, as described here:

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=300672

But it does not suit my purpose, because they clearly state :
"First, you cannot restore the metabase backup to another installation of Windows 2000. Although this would be convenient, this feature won't allow you to clone one IIS configuration to another server in your Web farm."

and i need to clone this installation to another server.

Is there a possibility to do this?

Would appreciate your help,

Thanks in advance!
