Same SID on domain.

Hi Chap's,

I've just take over a small Windows 2003 Domain with around 60 Windows xp / 7 computers. Out of these i have come across 30 of them that have the same SID. The previous guy cloned them however never used sysprep to change the sid.

So my Questions are :

1, What sort of issues could i run into down the line ?

2, Is this ok to do ? I've always thought changing the SID is a MUST TO.

3, if not, i need some sort of MS documentation to say this is a BAD thing as i need to present to my manager.

4, Are there any tools that will let me change the SID's without messing the user's profile up.

Thanks all

Roger
