Hi, during a recent thunderstorm our server was damaged. A new server
has been purchased with the same OS - Windows2000. Are there any
tools/procedured/hints or even spells to easily get all the settings
and configuration off the old server onto the new machine. The old
machine is currently working, but I don't know how long for.

It isn't a domain server, just a workgroup, but it does use remote
access and has a VPN to another site, which has its own server.


Any help is greatly appreciated.


Cheers,


Tim

PS: I tried the microsoft.public.windows.server.migration group, but
was advised that this was the better group to seek help from

Since your server is only a pretend-server, this is probably the
correct newsgroup for your question. Here is a little light reading:
