moving IIS server from windows nt to windows 2000

[Rizwan Atique]

Hi all,

Has anyone done migration of IIS server from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows 2000 Advanced server? I like to know the steps involved and complication that may occur during the process. Are there more than one way to do this?

Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't see the problem.
IIS is pretty much the same on NT as on 2000. I never worked with IIS on NT but all the docu I had was from NT and it was still valid.

But to help...
Assuming you have two machines: one with NT and one with W2K
I would install W2K, set up the IIS (its integrated now so no additional setup is needed). Setup DNS (also part of windows W2K). Then copy the data on the web sites of NT to the corresponding directory(ies) on the W2K machine.

That's it.

If you need more detailed info: Just ask.
