Windows XP Clients Not Registering in DNS

[Robut2]

Got Windows 2000 Active Directory domain with AD Integrated DNS. We
are using static IPs.

Built from scratch XP clients register fine; Ghost cloned XP clients
are not registering.

The clones were not sysprepped or Ghost Walked. We tried using NewSID
utility from www.sysinternals.com. After changing SID on clients, the
clients are still not registering in DNS.

Any suggestions on workaround for our existing Ghost cloned machines
to work without having to rebuild the machines from scratch?

First things first, sysprep before imaging - it's a lot less trouble.

Next thing to check is that the "Register this connection in DNS" is
selected (checked) under the DNS section of Advanced TCP/IP Properties on
each NIC.
