  iis 5 FPSE to iis 6 webdav migration Reply Contact Hi, I have to migrate multiple websites from a windows 2000 server running iis 5 and front page server extensions to a windows 2003 64-bit server with iis 6 and webdav. Which one is the best way to accomplish the migration: publishing the websites using SharePoint designer from the first server to the second, using IIS Migration tool (iismt.exe) or using IIS Export Utility? Thank you in advance
