How to move a Windows 2000 Installation to Diff. Hardware

[GTS2K]

I am getting ready to move a W2K installation to a new hardware. Specifically, Compaq DL320. Any suggestions? Checklist? Will Ntbackup.exe, save installed printers from the old server and restore it to the new? This server is running our Formscape. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Check out Hyena from systemtools.com. You can move printers and shares from one server to another. I used NTBackup to move the data and security settings and then used Hyena to move the shares over. It copies the security from the shares also.

Thanks for the help. I actually found printmig.exe version 3.0 that would help me migrate all the printers installed in our server. I have read Q249694. Thanks for the tips. If any would like to suggest more, any help will be greatly appreciated.
