I would use the network shell that comes with windows 2000 and above. It
stores everything in flat text files for quick editing, it's lightweight and
fast, and I use it exclusively for any maintenance on my DHCP servers. Check
it out at:

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/netsh_dhcp.asp

As an example you can issue 'netsh <ip of server> dhcp dump >
C:\temp\dhcpdump.txt' to backup your servers. You can also restore that info
to your server using 'netsh exec C:\temp\dhcpdump.txt' - the output of the
file from netsh is a test file of the commands!
