Today I had to setup a backup windows 2003 IAS server and i didn’t want to go through the process of doing it manually. After doing a little digging I found that it’s real easy to do with the netsh command.

On the IAS server that has all the settings you want to copy over run the following:

netsh aaaa show config > [file path]\file.txt

Now copy that file that was just create with the last command to the 2nd IAS server and run the following from the 2nd server:

netsh exec [file path]\file.txt

once thats done you’re done….. nothing else needed to do.

If for some reason in doing this you get a error stating “Failed attempting to show the aaaa configuration.” double check to make sure you have the “>” after the show config part in the export command.
