I was told that by taking a machine off of a workgroup and
adding it to a domain will change the SID. Does anyone know
if this is true? I always thought you had to
ghostwalk/sysprep it.

When you join the domain it will creat a new sid

Go into reg and edit the new sid to point to the user folder

And that's it
 
That will create a SID associated with the computer's domain logon but not
for any local accounts existing on the computer. Either SYSPREP or
GhostWalk is the preferred and correct way to handle the issue. If you read
up on the use of SYSPREP you can automate about 95% of the post-SYSPREP
process.
