hi All,<br />
<br />
I've had a nightmare on a new customers site. &nbsp;For some reason when ever i join the domain AD stores the wrong SID. &nbsp;I've tried everything i can think of (rejoining, resetting, syspreping etc..). &nbsp;No matter what i do it always assigns the wrong SID.<br />
<br />
I can see the two values using getsidid and adsiedit. &nbsp;Is there a way i can manually change one of them?<br />
<br />

many thanks

manually change a SID in either AD or on a 2008 member server

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
