url above states:
Type cscript iiscnfg.vbs /f filename.xml /d password /inherited /children,
and press ENTER.

this returns Type IIsCnfg /? for help.

doing so lists a very different syntax for command, many of the switches do
not work.

is there another version of iiscnfg that i need to use?

any help appreciated.

Firstly, you're not telling iiscnfg what you want to do - are you
wanting to do an export, an import, a copy etc.

If you're wanting to export a config then you can do this :
iiscnfg /export /f <filename> /sp / /children

That should export your configuration in a plain XML document.

To import it into your new server :
iiscnfg /import /f <filename> /sp / /dp / /children
will import it in - overwriting any differences between them.

seems to be a better source of information than the other link you have.

so far this is what i'm finding:
- ip numbers need to be changed in XML file
- anonymous access is still the id from the old server

anything else I should be looking for?
