IIS crash and format

Hi

due to big problems (basically since a couple of month iis service crash
several times a day) i need to format a web server (win2k, sp4, iis5.0)
where all our sites are hosted .
To avoid downtime i would like to transfer them all on the new server.
Do i have to recreate every single web (with a lot of virtual folders ) or
there is an automatic (semiautomatic) way to migrate them all?
Many thanks in advance

This has nothing to do that I can see with SQL Server, but in theory if you
back them up in the ISS Enterprise Manager and find the file (I can't recall
exactly where it is, but it's like %systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\backup),
copy that to the new machine and load it, you'll get your metabase intact.
DLLs will not necessarily be loaded though (say Cold Fusion, etc.)
