IIS6 web server configuration replication, is it possible?

[TechEd23]

Hi there,

I have two servers running windows 2003 web server (server1 and server2). Server1 is going up to london to be an active web server, while server2 is going to stay at a remote location to be the backup.

Now I have set up the Distributed File System on server1 to replicate all the web folders over to the server2 at the remote location.

Is there any way of setting up iis6 or Distributed File System or some third party software, to not only copy across whats in the folders but copy across any configuration changes made to iis6 on server1?

Schedule a metabase backup every night to backup the live server and then restore that on the backup server. This should give you a pointer:
