Convert computer account to include remote install GUID

[Nathan]

Hi,

Is it possible to convert a computer account that was created during the
install of WindowsXP to a computer account that holds Remote Install
information.

In ADUC a computer account can have a remote install TAB that holds the GUID
information of the computer. Currently this one doesn't.

I want to rebuild this computer and since the initial install we have
implemented RIS. This computer account is included in serveral groups and if
I can convert the computer account to include remote install information I
can keep the computer account and all group mappings. Otherwise I have to
add new computer account to all these groups.

TIA

Nathan

Found what I was looking for. It is the netbootGUID

Thanks
