tranfer windows 2000 server installation to new hardware

Hi all
how can I tranfer existing windows 2000 installation from one hardware
to a newer one?
I know it is not simple like just creating an image of old hard disk.

Is the system state backup enough or there is any additional steps required.

any thoughts

Regards
Hesham

I read this article,
but it talks about moving the hard disk.

I will not move the hard disk, I just want to install windows 2000
server again and restore all server settings (active directory, DHCP,
DNS, routing) in the new installation.

Is there a tool can back up and restore all these settings in new
windows 2000 server installation

Thanks for your help
