Active Directory Backup / Restore

I have a project coming up tommorow where I would like to backup and restore the Active Directory user accounts on a server.
The server badly needs a format, and I would prefer to avoid the need to readd every PC to the domain (due to lost SSID's). So I am interested in performing the afforementioned backup.
Is this procedure as simple as the help files explain it? I ran the backup, that wasn't a problem (using backup wizard to just backup the system state). But I am curious about the restore. Do I simply format, reinstall win2k server and then use the backup wizard to restore the old system state?
