Sharepoint Site Backup and Restore
here's how I made this work:
1. Create a back-up (you will need to substitute in your path names)
Navigate to: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN
run: stsadm.exe -o backup -url http://sp1/v1 -filename backup.dat
2. Go to the sharepoit Admin site, and add a new content Database (Now new sites you create will use this new content DB)
3. Create a new site... say "http://sp1/v2"
4. Run "restore" from the Commandline:
stsadm.exe -o restore -url http://sp2/v2 -filename backup.dat -overwrite
or else use sharepoint designer to export and import the site..
