  Re: I need to move IIS 6.0 windows 2003 stand. to another Windows 2003 stand IIS 6.0 Reply Contact You can export the Metabase from the old machine using the "Encrypt backup using password" option and you could restore on any windows 2003 machine. open Inetmgr -> Rightclick on machine name -> All Tasks -> Create/Restore Backup -> Click Create Backup -> Select Encrypt backup using password -> enter password and click ok This file will be placed in the %windir%\system32\inetsrv\metaback folder. Copy the new created files to the other machine to metaback folder and restore using the Inetmgr from the same menus Cheers, Santhosh visit my blogs at http://blogs.msdn.com/sansom
