Sysprep/SID generation question

[DukeN]

So was deploying couple of ghost images (sysprepped, shut down, made
ghost image), then this question came to me.

Does sysprep regenerate and assign SIDs after a machine is rebooted?
I assume this is based on a random sequence of some sort. If that is
true, is there a super miniscule possibility that two machines
deployed with the same image could have the same SID?

Thanks.

It does by default I believe. There is an option when you run
sysprep.exe that says "Don't regenerate security identifiers". We've
always left that option unchecked and it regenerates sids for us.
