Yes.
In IIS 6 click on computer icon and select all tasdks -> backup/restore configuration. in dialog click create backup. Enter file name and click okay. Files with extent MD0 and SC0 will be created in windows\system32\inetsrv\metaback. Thesae are xml files containing configuration info.
Also you can right click on web sites, specific web site or specific virtual directory select all tasks, save configuration to file. Files created this way will be saved to windows\system32\inetsrv and will have extent xml. They are configuration of entire web server from point selected toi right click.
You can create XSL credate 'pretty' document from XML. XML files can also be used to restore IIS configuratioon or to move or copy web site or virtual directory configurations to other web servers in a web farm - so configuration of multiple web servers in a web farm only needs to be manually done on one web server.
