I'm posting this on behalf of an associate... "I'm needing to copy all of the contents of one MS SQL 2000 server to another. In MySQL, I'd just "mysqldump --all-databases" and get on with life. However, there doesn't seem to be an equivalent tool for MS SQL that will do everything on the server and get the stored procedures and auth info and whatnot. The DTS built in to MS SQL 2000 could work, but that requires explicitly naming each database I want to copy, which won't be feasible in the long run because the number of databases on this machine is constantly growing. All the commercial third-party applications I've looked at are similarly database-centric, with no good way to "give me everything" in any sort of scriptable way. I want a very stupid tool, and everything I've found tries to be too smart! "
