noob needing some help!

Hi

I'm creating a sharepoint site on my small business server. I am going to create a standard version so that future installations of SBS boxes can delpoy the sharepoint that I have created.

Is it possible for me to make a site and then export it to a file of some sort and then if I need to install a new SBS server for a new client they can have the version I've created for them?

You can use STSADM.exe to backup and restore sites.

so when I've finished making my sharepoint site i can just run the program and that will backup everything thats on there?

How do I go about importing it into another server/sharepoint? Is the STSADM.exe file just a simple wizard??
