Can anybody point me to a tool (maybe there is one on www.wssdemo.com) that
can basically:

1) Backup all sites with security
2) Restore sites with security.

Before you say STSADMN...

I'm looking for a method to batch file the process.

We will setup WSS on another server, same domain. New SQL boxes and
everything.

I just want to take all the sites from Server A to Server B.

What's the best method?

My Current Migration Plan:

Take all the site backups.. .DAT files and restore them to the new server.

But I'd like an automated way to do a giant batch backup.. move the .DATs to
the new server.. do a giant batch restore.

All I care about is getting the sites on the new server.
