Will it work? It really depends.
What about ISAPI filters? What about ODBC DSNs? What about virtual
directories not included underneath the website's physical root? What about
NTFS permissions? What about COM components? What about load balancing
configuration? What about URLScan configuration?
If you have none of those things, then "yes" it will probably work. But only
you know what you are using, and what you aren't.
