GUID

[Bipin V]

Is there any chance that a GUID will be duplicated if I create it from
different threads in an applications in a multiCPU machine using
Guid.NewGuid();
Thanks

Not likely, although possible in theory.

nope if the machine has a network card (the guid algorithm uses the mach
address)

Ok, I know the alogorithm will be using the mac address of networkcard, time
and X(I dont knnow) parameters
There is a chance that, the time will be same, can somebody tell about other
parameters,
Does it include the threadid or process id or something like that to make it
unique.
Thanks
